Hi!
I would like to share a few photos showing action that is happening every year, as the trees in our garden starts blooming.
For an ordinary city bee, to enter into our garden, must be feeling like entering the All you can eat buffet.
Even the pickiest eaters can find a treat for themselves amongst a variety of flowers covering the ground.
But the real action happens in the tree canopies.
Bees are the most numerous visitors of our garden, but not the only one.
Here is a photograph of a bumblebee, who spent almost five minutes feasting on this flower.
This photograph is diagonally composed.
I wanted the viewers focus to fall on the bumblebee's wonderfully ornamented wings. To make them stand out, I locally increased the clarity and texture.
I also wanted to emphasize the fluffiness and softness of this creature's skin with soft petals right beside. It seemed to me as a pleasant combination for the eyes.
Apposed to soft textures, here are the wings - rigid, symmetrical, perfectly aligned; impossible not to notice.
And of course;
(Because who could live without them).
The main focus of this photograph is the fly's red eye, which is standing as a complementary color against a lot of green.
To make photograph balanced, I increased the saturation locally, making the red color heavier, to balance out all the green.
All photographs are shot by with Nikon D5600, macro lens AF Nikkor 28-105mm; 1:3.5-4.5D; edited in Adobe Lightroom.
Thank you for reading this post,
I wish you a wonderful day!
