Artist's Comments

This little Honey Bee was enjoying an afternoon meal as I was wanting to shoot some more Violets. Aside from the EXIF data, I used a +2 Diopter filter on this shot to get as close as possible.

Bees are such amazing things up close.
It's depressing they are slowly disappearing.

In my opinion, we don't devote nearly enough scientific research to finding a cure for jerks.

This reminds me of when my brother and I used to let bees land on our hands :) We were able to pet them if we were careful :D Bee's are amazing. And this picture is an amazing shot! :)

Well, they are in some areas, and not so much in others. [link]
But in either case they shouldn't be killed. This is why I don't use pesticides that are harmful to bees in my garden. :nod:
Thanks so much!

Don't take life too seriously... Nobody comes out of it alive, anyway! :nod:

Art is like Love, unless it is shared,and viewed by others and appreciated, it has no mutual return, it is empty and hollow, and lonely.

Only once?! :giggle:
Talk to them and let them know you are not afraid of them and you wish them no harm. They won't sting you unless they feel threatened. :nod:

Thanks! ;-)

Thanks for the link, I'm leaving in a minute so I can't
read, but will once I get the chance later. It sad that people
are killing them. Sure they sting people and it hurts. But
that is only emergency situations, and they run most the time.
Peaceful creatures that make the world more beautiful with flowers
should be left alone.
You're welcome too :)

I just mentioned to someone else, that if you talk to them and don't do anything to make them think they are in danger, they won't sting you. :nod:

Thanks so much! I have a few other's of ground bees in my gallery, also. :nod:
