Closeups

I have a new camera that I don't know how to work. Yesterday, our garden was full of bumblebees  so I spent a goodly time trying to capture one in closeup without success. 



The secret to snapping bumblebees it to capture them on flowers with an open structure. My bumblebees kept on disappearing down the tubes of Hosta flowers....I promise you they are there!

So, this next one was a success, but it wasn't a bumblebee! Ah well. It made me feel good. But THIS was my best!
