Up Close and Stingable (Original Photography)

Howdy!

It's not Monday, but it was a great day for some macro photography. A thin layer of stratus clouds provided a nice diffused light to work with.

"So, Here's the Sting..."
The pollenators are hard at work, collecting pollen and making threats with their stingers. Fortunately, the bees and wasps in the garden weren't concerned with being photographed.

Bug-Eyed
With a newer camera body, the eyes would have been much clearer but, even with my Canon 7D, it's clear enough to see the flower reflecting in his eyes!

Where's Spido?
This one is a bit of a "Where's Waldo?" photo. If you zoom in, you can see a tiny spider. It is probably a halve centimeter across, including the legs.

The bees and I parted on good terms. However, the wasps decided to build a nest above the front door. After one decided to come after me, I engaged them in armed conflict. They will not be back.

Thank you for taking a look! If you enjoy my work, please click the upvote button. Comments are also greatly appreciated.
