My Backyard - The Gallery!



 
From looking at my photos, would you guess what the theme for this week's gallery is?  I have to say that we have a tiny little garden, but we love it and use it all the time, especially now when the weather is much nicer and kinder to us. 

Last week I took a few shots of a bumble bee sitting on the blooming chives. I took me a while, as the bumble bee wasn't just sitting there...of course, but I managed to get a few shots I am proud of. What do you think? Do you have these in your backyard?


Don't forget to check out the rest of the gallery posts!

  5. Stunning set of photos. YOu must have an amazing camera to get that close up and without any blurring. You should be a wildlife photographer

  8. What a coincidence! I tried to photograph a bumblebee on our chives today but it flew away. So I snapped the roses instead.
