this set mostly focuses on movement, but there are some closeups, stills, and some cool lichens.

thanks df...one of my goals with photography is to avoid the cliche of freezing everything in time with a flash...that's just too easy, and doesn't give a decent representation of what the subject was doing.  capturing motion is the challenge :)

Someone really ought to tell them that the world of Ayn Rand?s novel was not meant to be aspirational.

Deknow, you got some REALLY good and interesting shots going on there.  I loved the perspective on the lichens.  I have a small flat, Sony cybershot with an excellent micro, takes some very good shots for a less expensive camera.  Wish I had gone deeper into photography, it is a great sport, and bees are excellent targets, smiling.  Thankyou for sharing and taking us into this part of your own little world.  Beauty.  Have that great, most wonderful day, health.  Cindi

I have a couple of pics with bees in flight but their not as good as these.  You are excellent when it comes to catching the moment.  I hope to see more.
