4th - Bee Food

Cheltenham, Glos.

Bit of a lame shot tonight - I saw these tiny little flowers this morning full of pollen, but not a bee in sight!

Are these some sort of periwinkle? Sorry, my floral knowledge doesn't extend much beyond roses, daffs and tulips...

Nikon D700
1/250s f/7.1 at 60.0mm iso200 full exif

It's very pretty and your focusing is spot on.

super focus Doug...I'm back five minutes and already aware of what I've been missing.

Absolutely nothing lame about this really like the colour and the pin point sharp focus (on that bit in the middle !) with the tiny depth field.
Brian Samuel04-Jul-2011 19:47
I Like that a lot, the pollen pings out.
Phillip Normanton04-Jul-2011 19:10
Ooh, excellent focus - I don't know what's happening with that glass effect on those hairy bits, but I like it! :o)

Nothing lame about this, Doug. It's a lovely shot of a firm favourite. Took a snap of Herb Robert myself today...he certainly gets around.
:-)

It's Herb Robert and you've caught it just right. Love the details.

Excellent detail. I don't know what flower it is either. V.
