Hello again on this sunny day,

the birds outside are chirping and singing, and I also should go outside for a little walk.

I'm down with influenza - there's a virus around here in Germany and I was the first guy who said - "hey, here I am, catch me if you can!" - and he can, this virus is faster than I wanted to be!!!

So I have to show you again a colourful shot to feel better, I hope you also will be in good mood today.

It's another one of my "early bee-serie"!
Have a good day, bye.

I'm back once more ... I have to tell you something I can't beleave by myself! It's sunny and warm today, normaly we have snow in February. And guess which guy I saw drinking at the crocus? - A Hummingbird-moth. That's totaly crazy!!! I'm happy to see them in Summer, but now it's WINTER!!! Even with some days about 15C!!! I'm not sure what to think about that!

Hi Sabine,
It's a nice and a colorful catch.
Sorry to hear that you are sick, hope you'll recover soon. The weather is also great here,and me being a person that runs on solar power I'm in a great mood :o)
Have a nice day

Hola Wishnu,
Excelente captura al vuelo, composición muy dinámica apreciandose el aleteo y logrando enfocar el resto, enhorabuena. Saludos

Another stunning macro of the busy bee Sabine!

You've got a great viewpoint from here and the detail is tremendous. Well done getting this tricky shot. Hope you feel better soon.

Sabine, my dear, I wish you "gute Besserung!"
And despite the fact that you are not feeling well, I am jealous! We have a few days respite from the winter's cold, but we do not expect to see crocuses for another 4 to 6 weeks!
Lovely close-up -- AMAZING, in fact! I love the way you have captured the bee now heavily laden with pollen.
Fabulous colours and stunning details!

Hi Sabine,
sorry to hear you are ill and I hope you recover soon.
It strange that you captured this for a couple days ago,
up here it's a real winter with alot of snow and -15C.
The picture is very nice with a good action of the flying insect, The details and colours are good, but I think it's a bit hard light for my liking, little to much flash-light,
otherwise it's a very nice picture.
Well done, my friend.

Hi Sabine,
Rich vibrant colors and sharp detail in this shot. Nice action shot on the bee with pollen on him. Looks great. Get well soon!

Hi.
Very nice and very realistic note. And once more amazing and skillfully done close-up shot. I love your DOF and other parameters of exposure. Great work with flash. Subject for shooting, cropping and composition are selected with perfect taste. Bravo. Superb work. My compliments and TFS.

Marjan

Hello Sabine,
We really don't have the same climate... Here is the real winter but I like it :) This is an amazing macro again, how do you do it? Don't answer, you explained me so many times ;) This is amazing by those details, colors, composition, POV and exposure. I love its blurred wings and this so colorful environment. This is beautiful! Thanks,
Claudine

Hello Sabine,
Excellent in flight capture of this pollencolic bee:)POV,sharpness,DOF,vivid colors and composition are wonderful.
TFS..:-)

The landing strip and the craft are well aligned for perfect landing here, Sabine :-)!
The blur of wings at 1/160 is something quite interesting.
A very lively action shot.
Yes, the weather patterns have left eveyone stunned globally. The alarm bells are ringing loud and clear.
Take care of your flu.
Best regards,
Ram

Hola Sabine,
hermosa imagen, bellos colores,
agradable pov. y detalles.
Buena captura, saludos

Hi Sabine,
These inflight insect shots are difficult to say the least, and require many tries to get it right. The capture shows your dedication to macro, with an excellent result mf.
Very well done.

Hermosa captura en vuelo Sabine con la belleza de la flor en todo su esplendor, llena de detalles, intensos colores y gran iluminación.
Me gusta el punto de vista captado al igual que el encuadre elegido, aunque el fondo no se percibe todo lo difuso que haría falta.
Gracias por publicarla.
Msi mejores saludos... Ricardo

Very nice capture in flight Sabine with the beauty of the flower in all their splendor, full with details, intense colors and great illumination.
I like the captured point of view the same as the elected framing, although the background is not perceived all the diffuse one that it would be necessary.
Thanks for posting.
Mis best regards... Ricardo
