Beautifully captured Yves. The sharp focus on the flower and bee float on the soft bokeh.

Beautiful capture, Yves, with lovely background tones. Your focus on the bee and the blossom is spot on. This image has me longing for spring again..

Thank you very much Heather. Summer photos are the only ones I can post because I don't take any photos in the winter. I still have about 75 remaining summer photo to choose from.
