the bee is certainly an interesting feature, but I live that stalk he is on. it looks almost like a totem pole to me, as I see stacks of faces looking out in all directions. Nice use of focus to direct the viewer

May the gardens all over the world be humming like crazy, then, Sherri. I love it.

Lovely use of DoF. I like the soft pastel colors and of course, the bee.

Such a lovely image. Gotta love the palette and the subtle tones. And the bumble bee is the icing on the cake – or the bee on the flower. 🙂

Lots of bumbles suddenly showed up last week … one was even walking down the street … not flying … walking! He didn’t look hurt, and had both wings. He literally was strolling.

I grow these plants because the bees love them, as shown in your photo.
