Making Honey




At the front of my house I have a lovely lavender plant growing in an old chimney stack.  It has been growing for years and it every summer it is a mass of fragrant blossom, and blossom attracts the bees.

Taking photos of bees is not  at all easy as they rarely stay still long enough to get a really sharp image. 

Today's pictures were from my first attempt to photograph bees using my 100mm Macro lens.  I have to be honest most of the shots I took that day were rubbish but I have managed to pick a couple that I am relatively happy with.  This summer I hope to get a bit more practice.
