I want to show you some pictures of a honey bee that I did some time ago in spring. It is really nice to watch how the busy bee collects the pollen from the flowers and makes them produce the yummy honey. Since there were a lot of bees flying around at the willow catkins I used my camera and my Macro lens to produce some pictures of this scene.
I like Macro shots since they show something that I usually don't see this close. Bees other insects, flowers and tree blossom are always nice objects for Macro Photography. But it is still a type of photography I need to get a little bit more exercise to improove my pictures in this field.

In Bohemia we say (diligent as a bee).
An awesome hard worker and you captured it perfectly.
These are nice shots of honey bees. They are really enjoying themselves. I also love macro photos cause they close shots and make the recognizable to us.
