Didn't know that even camera's could be member of a union, Lyn, lol.

Although it's not Friday yet, you have provided us with a wonderful F² image. Thanks for that.

Regards, Cornelius.

You have paid your dues many times LE so tell your camera to "snap to" and get back to work. Either that or just take a "well deserved" break. Cool shot with the bee.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

Such beautifully colored dahlias and the added attraction of the bee makes for a great image.

Beautiful dahlias in a row! This is one of my favourite varieties of dahlias Lyn. Very good capture with the bees on the blooms.
