I'd clone out that bee - it's getting in the way of the flowers :lol:

Nicely done on the second shot - I prefer that to the first, which I think could have been slightly better with a larger DOF (yeah, I know, you just can't please them all ;) ) :)

Amazing. I am in complete awe when I see pictures as crisp as this of all these zippy bugs. I find it hard enough keeping focus just on the flower!

Technically I think they are weeds!! Onion weed is what I suspect! BTW great shot of the hover thingy.
Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

Yes they are called Hover Fly's, but I dont know their scientific name. I've had some of my photo's of them identified.

Beautifully taken and bitingly sharp. Carl Zeiss does it again! :)
