Water avens and a bee

Or as the Swedes would say it, Humleblomster och en humla.

I was just setting up the rig when this bumblebee showed up. Knowing that it will not wait for me to finish setting up things, I fired the shutter and hoped that I got the exposure, sharpness and composition. Exposure, yes. Sharpness - good enough, but not pin sharp. Composition - yikes. All over the place, so I had to do some creative cropping in Lightroom to rescue what I could. So not a real keeper by any means, but I just didn’t have the heart to delete it. It was my first picture of the day, a serendipity at 9:01 on a warm Sunday morning. Life is good.
