I was in the garden trying to take some pictures of Hollyhock flowers from a slightly unusual angle, when I saw this Bee crawling around the back of the one I had the camera focussing on. I’m not sure who was most surprised, the Bee seeing me so close, or me because he hadn’t flown away.

There is a larger version of this picture on my Flickr Page, which those who follow me on Twitter may have already seen. More of the photographs I’ve taken can be found on Flickr.






Andrew Gosden (now 18) has been missing from his Doncaster home since 14 September 2007. The search continues.
I really like this!
Hey youngest one! Thought you’d commented on here before?
Thank you. I’ve got a big version of it as my desktop wallpaper at the moment, and really quite pleased with it. Just don’t go looking for macro shots of Bees on Flickr — some amazing pictures.
