Bees & Bugs

The bees are back!

I have seen the odd bee flying about on its own, recently. Today, I decided to photograph the wattle blooming in the lane near our house. I was thrilled to find it had bees in the blossoms. I’ve used the Nokia Lumia 520 Windows Phone, on auto.

I have sharpened and cropped and scaled for the web using IrfanView & GIMP and applied the frame masking with FastStone. Yeah, I over-fiddled!

I guess you will see only a few of them on a small screen!

Thanks for looking. Hope you are having a good weekend.  🙂

Lots of bees…

I’m just passing through – taking a break from being productive. After checking the photos I took yesterday, I decided to  share these with you. Taken yesterday with the Nikon D3000.

Yes, the novelty of bee tongues is starting to wear off me, too!

Have a good day.     🙂
