"Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain."
~ Henry David Thoreau
Early this morning, I was able to capture some macro photography shots of some insects. I used a Canon 80D camera with a 75 - 300 mm lens. The first shot is of a honeybee that was buzzing around. The second two shots are of a bumblebee sipping up some nectar from a flower.
I'm surprised at the immense amount of bees that I have seen this spring. Last year, it seemed as if there were not that many flying around. Whether that is because we had a wetter early spring last year, or because this year has been quite dry, I will not know. But I count myself lucky to have been able to capture these beautiful creatures in their natural habitat.
One love,
