Lovely bee :)
The weather in Crete is still sunny and hot and our little bees are enjoying themselves on the flowers of the loquat tree! I am taking pictures of bees the past few years and I have become quite fond of them! This one though, took me by surprise. I took it yesterday and I have to say it looks like no other of the hundreds of bee shots I have taken. You can check out some of my previous pictures here. Isn't this one really unique?
ISO: 400
Lens: Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM Macro

This is also my entry for the Deranged Photography Contests - Bug Out Theme hosted by @derangedvisions!
Gorgeous shot - is it just me or di I see similarities in the flower on the upper right (the one that's 'blurred') and the bee? On of the flower petals looks like the head of the bee - hehe.
Indeed! Your keen eye is epic :)
lovely bee, scary bee ;P
It is a little scary, yes!

Thank you!
The most special flavour is thyme although usualy you'll find a mix of several flavours.
