Visitors in the Lavender Patch
« on: August 08, 2014, 05:24:33 pm »

Some small-scapes.  The fourth one provides a bit of context.  I am curious to know if it works or not.
The bugs are crops.
Critique welcome.

Number 3 looks like a small skipper, but I'm not sure about the Bumblebee species

I agree #1 & #3 get the face and are better angles.  Shot with Nikon a 85mm DX micro @F6.7.  I would like a longer lens for these shots.

There were at least 3 different types of bumble bees (based on markings).  The two I showed were the largest and fuzziest.  It was warm and they were all moving at high speed.  :)

I also like #1 and #3. The last photo could also be spectacular but I think that the background is not optimal. I'd hope to have a background composed of lavenders only.
