Busy Bee in NZ

**Sitereh** · 21-01-2008

I took this photo today and I chased it all over the grass. I have know idea how he can see where he is going.
I am testing my camera to see what sort of photos I will get. I haven’t changed anything only cropped it in PhotoShop. I took the easy way and used Auto and Macro setting.
I thought this looked English being on a dandelion. Some people over here are making organic dandelion coffee I haven’t tried that yet.

I am happy for any comments

Nice shot Sitereh, the macro is good on those cameras, Louise uses the 7000 and gets good results.

He really is well loaded with pollen.

I didn't have a tripod so the camera must be doing ok or I am following instruction well..lol
