Bees and Lavender. (and a Hover)

[Paul5566]

I took these today. I also got loads of shots of a Hoverfly in the air. I managed to lock on the AF while it hovered. I later found out the flash was turned off. :-(

Very nice Paul, classic full frame macro, great colors and they have a wonderful 3D feel.

Really nice shots there. I also like the bee in flight #4 best. Bees in flight is something I still need to get the knack for. Thanks for showing us.
