Kagoshima. I went this weekend a bit outside of town and the bees were collecting nectar and pollen from the rape blossoms.

Thank you very much for all your comments.

The richness of color and the close crop make this a very vivid image. The level of detail is striking.

I love the yellow of the flowers and the fresh green of the leaves...I've seen them around, it's amazing how early they bloom and keep on blooming for quite some time!The bee is very well captured! This is an image that smiles!

This is one of the best macros I’ve seen, lately. I like that you have not overdone the close-up part and have retained the important setting . .

Voir les abeilles butiner, c'est rassurant! Et elle est bien conscencieuse!J'aime bien ton cadre, l'abeille étant bien située par rapport aux 2 diagonales. Merci pour ton passage!
