Macro Photography: A Bee Enjoying French Lavender

in #palnet5 years ago

Here is “Bee Enjoying French Lavender” photo as I experiment with making the most of the variety of apps and tags on the Steem blockchain. Here using Partiko app and Palnet tag.

I recently learnt there were so many different types of bee. I don’t know what variety this bee is but it was sure enjoying the lavender.

It’s fantastic that we are able to take quality macro photographs with our phones these days!

I wonder if someone locally with be enjoying lavender enfused honey in a few months....

I never noticed the lavender flower had so many individual flowers within the flower!

Lovely photograph, I've been trying to capture this kind of picture for a few days now with little success, maybe I need to find some tastier flowers for the bees :)

Perseverance! This was take 25 ish! They do move pretty fast. The bees have liked Lavender and Laburnum in my garden this year....

Patients is key I assume and it makes a good photo so much better when it turns out like this. Time for me to start planting some flowers!

That is a super clear closeup. What phone do you have?

Just remembered you can get a Bee Spotters Guide as part of the Bee Saver Kit from Friends of the Earth...

That’s excellent - many thanks for the top tip @pennsif : I’ll check that out.

iPhone7s : doing a sterling job despite being 2.25 years old. (Usually the time bomb goes off after 2years but this one is doing well.)

Never tried an iPhone.
