Thank you Scott :D
Rebecca Cozart
Wonderful…how do you do this? I’m amazed. I’m so not a fan of getting that close to a bee.
Jacky Parker replied
Thank you Rebecca, these are little hoverflies, although they look like bees they are harmless and sometimes hover long enough to photograph, but you need to be patient lol! :D

Love it! If you’re anything like me, Jacky, you’ll spend hours trying to capture a shot like this. Hoverflies are probably my most addictive subject.

Never a true word spoken Sarah-fiona, hours! I was trying to photograph an alium flower on my garden table and noticed these little guys hovering, needless to say nothing else got done that afternoon lol!
