Photo bomb

While trying to take a photo of a butterfly in the garden, this !@%$^&# bee ruins my photo ! Don't you just HATE IT when someone just jumps in front of the camera while they're not supposed to do so? 😇

Life happens while we are making plans! Have so many ruined images where something similar happened!
Those are usually the most interesting photos. Got a lot of sparrows in the garden and while photographing them one day, a few seconds there was a catbirdfight. Didn't see that happening until I checked the (burst-mode) photos on my PC. 🤣
 
The butterfly is still beautiful!! Also, I like the bee flying in as it represents nature and the butterfly is still the focal point!
This was 1 photo out of a batch taken from the butterfly. Burst mode because hand-held macro gets more failures then keepers. A few clicks later and both sat happily on the same flower. :)
 
You see? co-habitation is possible! That is a most interesting butterfly, never saw one like it before.
We have bees, bumblebees, wasps, all sort of butterflies, dragonflies..... and all sort of smaller birds in the garden. No need to go far away for macro- or bird photography. :)
The butterfly is an Aglais io or European Peacock, very common in this part of the ol' continent.

Thanks for the info. Looking forward to more of your photography.
