The Bumblebee and The Snail

nelinoeva (65)in #macrophotography • 6 years ago (edited)

No, I am not going to tell a kind of fable. It just happened today to encounter the bumblebee during my lunch break. Clouds were covering the sky and it was perfect for some macro shots. I was looking at the yellow dandelion because I spotted the other day tiny ants hiding in the flower. And then the bumblebee just came closer and I started clicking to get the best of it. The snail, well, the snail was just minding its own business.

I think I annoyed the bumblebee, because it stopped, grasped the petal and raised one leg.

The little bugger was photogenic and luckily allowed me to make these shots?

With a Samsung J5?!?!?!?
This is amazing, awesome!
I never thought that these kinds of quality macro photos would be possible with a Samsung J5.
Well done!

Steem on!

P.S.: I found this post through the @qurator post.

Thank very much for stopping by and your comment. :-) Much appreciated!
Indeed the camera of a smartphone can capture amazing images from the macro to the lunar craters (through the eyepiece of telescope).
