Cotoneaster Dammeri

Cotoneaster Dammeri
I was trying to take a photo of a bumble bee on this cotoneaster through my bay window. The bee instantly flew away but I quite liked the effect caused by the curved glass. Unedited except for resizing.

buonacoppi, HelenaPF, Gudrun, Erhard Bernstein and 25 other people have particularly liked this photo

Thank you for your kind comments. I think this one will be full of bees soon, but as you say, they flit about so quickly! You have a beautiful gallery.

Thank you Tanja. I was hoping the bee would not notice me, but it was off like a shot!
It has been warm and sunny here today! I hope the cats and dogs are not coming our way tomorrow ;-)) Good evening to you.

For such tiny flowers there must be a lot of goodness in them, I have horizontalis and that is full of bees, fortunately they are friendly !! even if they bump into you as you walk by
