Bee Paparazzi

Last weekend I was walking up from the horse pasture and noticed bees buzzing all around the rhododendrons. I stopped to take pictures.

Now I know where the term "busy bees" comes from! Those bees were workin' those blooms! I could barely snap a shot before they'd zoom out of a bloom and into another.

Like a Hollywood movie star stalker, I even tried just posing the camera on an empty bloom in hope that a bee would do a fly by and land, but I swear they were camera shy and stayed away.

I managed to catch these two bees working side by side.

The bees did not turn out very good. I was hoping I could get a better zoom on them. A macro lens might have helped.

The petals on these rhodies ended up being the star of the show. I like this one the best, because the petals look so blurry, delicate, and dreamy.

These petals are my favorite shade of pink. It is just fabulous! If I were to ever paint a room's walls pink, I would want them this color.

A huge thank you to Beverly over at How Sweet the Sound for hosting Pink Saturday every weekend. It is always fun to see what all those creative bloggers choose to post about!
