Bee!

Here's one for the insect fanciers out there: this shot of a bee I nabbed last summer in Annapolis, Nova Scotia. As you can see, this bee is about as high on pollen as it's possible to get without overdosing, and such was its state of ecstasy that I was able to get up very close to it with my macro lens and snap away with the result that you see here. I was pleased with this because I have more blurred bee shots than you can possibly imagine.

Details: Nikon D70, 105mm macro lens, f/6.3, 1/500s, ISO 200. 24 August 2005, Annapolis Nova Scotia. Placemark.
