WOW! You got me on the bee. I was looking at the picture above, it only took me like 5 minutes to figure out it was the picture below! What a great picture, and the landing, beautiful!
You could have left out the spider though, I am sure you put that one in there for me!
Aren't my Rhody's beautiful?

HOLY COW! Love all these pics. The landing of the bee is spectacular. I can't believe you captured that. I'm trying to think, and I don't know if I've ever seen yellow Rhodies before...they are beautiful! The "sleeping dandelion" is really pretty...all of these were really, really good!

{BB and JRosey}~ I'm not so sure it was a "series", I took a few on continuous, but also just took a lot of pictures of those blossoms and those are probably different bees! I have never seen a yellow Rhodie before, in fact, when I walked by it yesterday I thought perfect- something for yellow Sunday! :)

{Paint Girl}~ You're lucky I didn't notice the spider until I downloaded my pictures, or I would have had a close-up for ya! ;)

Those are excellent captures. I love your flowers.
I must say your sleeping dandelion is gorgeous and far better than my wide-eyed ones! LOL!
You have a natural eye for capturing pictures!

Beautiful pictures! I was going to take a pic of some scotch broom too, but I was bored with it already *sneeze*! I was waiting for my yellow mare to shed out some more too, but she's taking her time... I think a bath will help, if it gets warm enough today. Wonderful job getting some amazing pictures of some really unique yellow stuff.

{Cowgirl Sprat}~ When I first labeled the picture of scotch broom, I had originally written something about it being a "havoc wrecker on allergies." :) I wonder if it's the blooms that make it so bad?

VERY nice PG! Way to go -- love love the pic of the fringe on your chaps. And the first of the sleeping dandy lion is great! You've got the eye sister... ;)

PS: Let up on the Scotch Broom -- it is by far my favorite scent (that and a fresh rain in the summer.) :D

Look at you... Those pictures are great!

Patches said...

WOW! Those are amazing shots! The one of the bee coming in for a landing is priceless! I really like the fringe and the yellow rhody is beautiful!

Lovely yellow photos all! The first one is my favorite. I've never thought to take a photo of a closed flower before. I like the detail you captured :)

Nice blog over here...it's my first time visiting.
