I was trimming the shrubbery <dramatic crescendo> in the garden this afternoon when I noticed some bees enjoying our flowers. I seized the opportunity to cease work and shoot some photos, under the pretense of getting material for the nature Guides project I'm working on (I will, in fact, use the shots for this purpose, but still...) Here's my pick of the afternoon. The composition isn't great, but these little buggers move about so much it's tough enough to get one in focus and in frame at all! http://www.robertstech.com/temp/eric.jpg ist-D, ISO 800, FA*80/200/2.8 with 1.7x AF teleconverter 1/400th sec @ f/14
