Bright

Flame Skimmer Libellula saturata dragonfly. It had been flying in and out of view and then alighted on a twig long enough for me to get this shot. Taken with noon sunlight and flash in August 2006 with my Fuji FinePix S5200 at 1/500s, f/3.6, ISO: 100, 389mm.

Curl

This honey bee was photographed with overcast noon light in March 2007. 1/680s, f/7.1, ISO: 400, 389mm, +2 diopter HOYA macro add-on. Does anyone recognize the flower? These flowers are from a big bush or a wide tree, in San Diego. I don’t know what they’re called, though.

And that’s the last honey bee photo for a while. Next week we’ll move up to dragonflies!

Golden

I saw this honey bee in this big golden flower at the local botanical gardens. It was really a perfect match of colors. I’m not sure what kind of flower this is, but if you know, please comment! Taken with my Fuji FinePix S5200 at 1/250s, f/3.6, ISO 200, 389mm with a +1 diopter close-up add-on lens.

Harmony

Late in the afternoon on one beautiful June 2009 day, I captured this honey bee hovering perfectly in harmony with the lavender(?) flowers. (Don’t worry, this is the last honey-bee-on-lavender photo for a while. But there are a couple more bees in this blog’s future.) Taken with my Fuji FinePix S5200 at 1/200s, f/3.5, 205mm, ISO: 200, with close-up add-on lens. Flash not used.
