Bee on Yellow Flower

Hello,

This is another photo that I took on my walk around Obuse, Japan. There is some old buildings and most of them have beautiful gardens that you have to see to believe.  Luckily Obuse as a town actually will allow tourists to visit many of these gardens that are a part of the town and are inside of people's houses.  Outside of the entrance to either the gardens or the houses is a panel telling you you can enter and enjoy the space.

This bee was all alone in one of those gardens enjoying this yellow flower to it's fullest.  I almost feels like I could sneeze by just looking at this flower and all that pollen in the center of it.  The bright yellow flower and the delicate striped bee seem to be moving together and in love with working in a symbiotic manner.  The gone background makes you focus on the scene and nothing else.

Thank you very much for reading.

Lavender Bee

Hello,

Near the Nagano Japan Railroad train station on the east side is a happy little community garden.  Even with the temperature going into the freezing every night I still see them working on it and adding a few flowers here and there.  One day my wife and I talked to someone else that enjoys it and she said that a lot of the plants actually came up on their own.  I am talking about a big rose bush, some tulips and this lovely lavender.

The deep smell of lavender gets me every time I see and even get near a plant.  The green parts change in deepness depending on the season and if they are flowering at the time.  I love these type of flowering lavender because I can easily pick up one of the purple buds and stick it in my bag or pocket and I smell it all day.  Even the bees and birds enjoys the smells and colors with them circling the plants at all hours of the day.

Bee on Rosemary Blossoms

Hello,

This picture was taken at my parent's house, I still remember when the rosemary was planted.  We had never had a rosemary plant before and I didn't think much of it in the beginning because it was so small.  The first year it grew a little bit but the blossoms impressed me greatly, mainly because I didn't know rosemary blossomed.  The second year it blew up and exploded out to become a large plant and it gets larger every year to now it is a hedge almost.

I am not the only one who loves those wonderful purple blossoms so do the bees.  They come all the time because it is California and warm year round, they almost swarm around them at times and the bushes look alive.  Once again the yellow bee and the green leaves act so well together. I found this article about someone else with this "problem" I found it enjoyable.

Bee Hugging White Flower

Hello,

This picture is a very interesting one to me.  It was taken near my house in a little community garden with benches so that you can enjoy the flowers.  The thing is that it is right next to a busy street so it's not very relaxing.  Also it is a common pathway for the people that live in the area which might have been the point to begin with.  I can always hear people talking in their houses or see their clothes drying in the sun.

This bumblebee looks to me that it was enjoy the garden and this one flower the most. She is giving me the evil eyes as I take a photo of the perfectly white flower she is enjoying.  Her black legs grabbing onto them for dear life as her blurry wings try to get away.  I love the green stem with all the lines against her yellow mane.

Yellow Flower Bee

Hello,

This is so nice to me that I printed it out and now it is at the entrance of my house.  It was June and very hot but at least the flowers and bugs were out in force.  I happened upon this flower and thought it was pretty and well lit in the sun and took a couple of photos.  Just as I was going to walk away the bee came and landed right on the same flower not even caring I was there.  I took that she wanted her picture taken, so that is just what I did.

This almost all yellow picture amazes me that few do.  The yellow in the overlapping petals and pollen are the same tone so blend nicely together.  Then the black from both the bee and under the pollen pop out to focus your eye to them.  It's like they say watch me I am doing my job I love what I do.  I normally don't do anything for any of my pictures but for this one I turned it upside down.  It has more of an open fell rather then a sad look.

Thank you very much.
