Oh, these are marvelous pictures – make me feel like I’m looking into a magical kingdom that is happening around me that I’ve missed out on! WOW, Diddums, you are awesome photog!
Thanks all… I like the colour of the flowers; it seems to rescue the pictures to an extent. But those bees are so quick… in and out in about three seconds!
Hi Pete, I read somewhere that if the lens is slow at focusing, manual focus might save the day… I expect that takes a bit of getting used to as well!

Yay bees!
Bumble bees are too cute, but honey bees need love too.

I can imagine it must’ve been difficult to capture these
they look good though, I like the top photo and the one below it on the left!

Nice photos – they’re the bees knees
They’d be a complete blur if it were me…
