Again a foggy day in Holland Lyn, but your image, however, brought four bright suns today! Thanks for that!

Beautiful color, Eve, sure brightens my day. Don't usually like insects on my flowers, but this bee must be in heaven with all that pollen. Great clarity!

Beautiful! I'm glad you didn't see the bee, because he's now an extra added attraction. He thinks these sunflowers are beautiful too!

I think they were definitely ready for their close-up. They exude character don't they, you can almost imagine them whispering to one another as the follow the sun. Lovely shot Lyn.

I think the bee is confused. The flower at macro range resembles a honeycomb. He's probably been out on the town swilling pollen and got the wrong house. After all, they all look alike. Great photo by the way Lyn.

What a bunch of beauties. I like their different poses, and the rich details brought out by the clarity. Wonderful colours too. Does it mean that you're starting autumn in the Southern Hemisphere? :)
