I have a Redbud tree in my backyard that is currently blooming, and this morning I snapped a few shots of Bumble Bees and Honey Bees doing their work. I've never spent much time photographing bees, and have a newfound respect for bee photographers! Maintaining focus on these little rascals is no easy task!

Great shots, especially the ones in flight! Very difficult to capture consistently and with the wings showing. That's a big lens you are using for bees. I normally use a 105 macro with / without 1.4 tele attached; and my nose right up against the bees! So far no mishaps.
