Hum De Hum

Okay this was a photo kind of Day.. I took wayyy too many pictures and I liked wayyy too many of them.
From the hawk that landed in the condo lawn as Hubby and I headed to our walk.
To the Tons of Bees
Swarming around the flowers
To simply catching my hubby spinning around.. when I was going for his back end walking down the path.. and the light caught just soo..

Thank heaven's for PaD outtakes. http://www.pbase.com/jajlo/pad_outtakes Where all the rest reside!
This one got picked because it had the flower crystal clear, the depth and a bee. REally tempted to have the hawk tho, just because, how often does a hawk land after a kill just feet from you!

Fun day! Good walk! Nice tolerant hubby-(he kept walking around the small park as I'd move ohh.. ten feet getting different pics today. lol.

Dawn, this is excellent. You caught the bee in flight, plus the flower is in focus. Great capture.

Oh you did have a good day and you are right the choice was a rough one. I too am always partial to photos with bees in them but I have to say, I think this one http://www.pbase.com/image/29002802) was my favorite for the day. It has something about it that I find very appealing. But, the are all really nice so any of them would have served as a fitting tribute to this day.

i posted a bumble bee today as well, but I like yours better. I like your hawk even more, but, I'm partial to raptors.
