Flowers and Bees

I'm not a big flower-taking kind of photographer but when insects are involved, the flowers become more that a pretty picture...they become life.

Getty Bees

Taken 5/14/06 Mother's Day on a visit to J. Paul Getty museum in Los Angeles. There were lots of flowers and plants but when I saw the bees hovering above the flowers, I knew this was the shot. Used Canon Powershot digital camera.

Yosemite Bees

Taken on the same Yosemite trip as previously mentioned, I noticed these unusual flowers in the meadow. When I got closer I noticed the bees. This is almost a perfect exposure and composition. Used Canon Powershot digital camera.
