It is not exactly easy to photograph bees. Bees are on a mission and very busy, they don't have time to pose for you.
My neighbors have a honeysuckle or something like that and both the bees and the ants love it and are swarming all over. I went out to get some pictures of bees that I could maybe work off of for my series. It was a bit funny and frustrating but I'd get my camera to where a bee was and then the bee was gone, I have several almost identical pictures, all without bees.I also am a bit frustrated with my camera, the few times I actually did get bees they were blurry...but maybe that's their fault for moving.I did get a few cool shots though. This one had no bees in sight, I just thought it looked cool.
