My pleasure John.

Sunrise with Bee ! A very nice macro, Keith !

It does look a bit like that...............I'm pleased you like it Ulrich.

It is as though it was modelling for you Keith, with a perfect pose :-) Really beautiful detail and colour, even in the dying flower in the right hand corner. I'm not familiar with this flower. It does look pretty, and your garden must be looking good and colourful now.

It stayed there for ages Rosa, so you could be right! I'm pleased you like the photo. The flower is another that we don't remember planting. About three years ago we bought a lot a wildflower seeds and just threw them over the garden........nothing happened much the first two years, but this year we have lots coming up........I'm assuming they were part of that batch.

The garden is looking pretty colourful at the moment, but there's not as many insects about as there used to be........maybe it's a bit early yet.

I planted a Buddleia Flutterby, which is a petite plant, in hope of attracting more butterflies this year. A bit of settled weather might help bring the bugs in.

Good idea Rosa...............you should do alright with it............. there's a reason Buddleias are called butterfly bushes.

She is inside a pollen cocoon that it opened to receive her!
Stunning moment wonderfully capture, Keith!

Thank you Judite.............it was a beautiful thing to see and I was pleased to get a decent photo. Glad you like it.

Such a great experience and a fabulous capture, Keith,
I like the colours and the amazing detail, plus catching the bee dead centre is a real bonus.

A real stunner !!!!!

Thank you Roger............I was really lucky to find it in that pose!

Another fine macro shot of summer my friend. Very well done -again.

Cheers. Herb

Thank you kindly Herb..........glad you like it.

Sehr schönes detailreiches Makro, Keith! Die Biene ergänzt das Muster der Blüte perfekt.

Thank you so much Wilhelm...........I'm pleased you enjoyed it.

Perfect, the bee seens to be posing especially for you:-) The sunny colours are a joy.

I was lying really still and remained like that for ages. Glad you like it Gudrun.
