Bee on Dahlia by Sheila Burke-Grey

September 2023 - Bee on Dahlia

About the Image(s)

This photo was taken at the local Arboretum with my Olympus OM1 MarkII, 14-150 lens with extender; Exposure
1/160, F13, ISO 200. I love this flower as it has a fuzziness to the petals!. And the bee is enjoying every minute!
I believe it's a Dahlia. Correct me if I'm mistaken1

Zinnia perhaps Sheila? Nice catch. Bees are quick for sure. Good shot for 1/160th of a second! It's not often I am able to catch the wings still enough for this kind of sharpness!   Posted: 09/10/2023 04:22:25
