Bee on a Toadstool II
This was taken in the in-laws back garden, i had noticed some toadstools/fungi growing on their lawn.
Armed with the A900 and 100 macro, i went outside to take some images and was surprised to find a Bee sat on one of the toadstools.

Gorgeous shot!! How close were you to this little guy? I always scare them away!
Robert Kendall replied
I was about 10 inches away, but it was a very cold day and i think he/she was trying to warm up. This is the first one i have ever managed to capture.
