Bee Hunting

Maybe I can shoot a bug.

Still playing around with my phone/camera.

First, I shot a bunch of RAW photos. When I was 25 years younger, I wasn’t patient enough to do RAW processing. My patience has not increased with age. 

But I did get that promising tiny insect. So, delete all the RAW images except this one.

Cooked an excellent lunch and decided to shoot HUGE jpgs. And just crop. Out I went.

This will never be as good as with a real camera.

 

Caught a very slow bird. (American Goldfinch – male, I believe.)
Sometimes, even if the bee gets away, the image is still sweet.
The End of Today’s Bee Hunt.

 Way back 12 or 14 years ago, I went bee hunting on many late summer afternoons. It was easier with a real camera. But it’s still fun to see what I can capture. Whatever happens is what I planned.
