Photo: Flight of the Honeybee - A Meeting of Minds

I took this and thought I'd come post it here, this is the result of me trying to take a pic of a bee on a thistle, and ended with me screaming in terror as it flew at me. But what a lucky reflex shot eh!

Kath · Sep 12 2010, 08:42 AM

That's SO cool for a lucky shot!

Brenda · Sep 12 2010, 10:42 AM

Excellent focus considering the circumstances!

Love bees, honey etc but for some reason bees don't like me either. Great shot though.

kevia · Sep 12 2010, 10:43 PM

WandaSue · Sep 12 2010, 11:22 PM

Thanks all! I'll send on the praise to my camera, which takes some awesome pics under the daftest conditions! It's just a bridge camera, but it's with me everywhere I go. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 *Hugs it*

I must try to post more, I so rarely do on forums these days to be honest!

The mini farm is doing well. We now have a cat, a dog, 5 rats and 4 snakes.

the dog and cat, he's bigger now, I need new pics!
She's a jack russell/whippet mix and he's a benegal cross, got the temperament for it too heh

i'll get a thread up later on with pics of everyone I think, bout time I had a photoshoot heh
