...and then the bee which is covered in pollen comes across pistils (flowers' female organs) which are sticky so the pollen which was on the bee sticks to them (sounds logical) and thus beginning new life.

This is a bee which I found diving in a sunflower on a sunny day.
It was so absorbed in its activity that it wasn't aware of my presence.
Well...It was hard not to notice me for my camera was not more then an inch from the bee.
When it got full it flew away. |

Cześć Rafał!
Fajne zdjęcie pod względem kompozycji i kolorystyki, szkoda tylko,że akurat schowała głowę- no ale wiadomo,że przyleciała zbierać nektar a nie pozować;), trochę ostrość jakby poszła zbyt do przodu, ale i tak zdjęcie warte uwagi! Dobra robota.
Pozdrawiam
Adrian

Hi Rafal, this bee is so covered in pollen, it almost appears buried. Very nice close detail with good focus to show the bee and those front stamens. Excellent colour.
Thanks, John
