[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
While on holiday in Victoria, British Columbia, my wife and I toured Butchart Gardens, a sprawling 50-acre display of flowers, trees and shrubbery. Of course, keeping all the flowers healthy and in bloom requires pollination, and that job falls (mostly) to the bees.

Not sure what kind of flower this is, nor what kind of bee, but it was fun trying to capture the insects as they alighted on a flower for a moment and then flew off to the next one.

Cropped, levels adjusted, sharpened, frame added.

Hi Bob,
Without any doubt a perfect sharp macro. All details of flower and bee are perfectly clear excellent brightness. The presentation in the white frame is superb. So not knowing flower nor plant, I'm glag not to be the only one :-)
