A flower in my back yard taken with a vintage Soviet Helios 44-2 58mm f2 lens attached to my DSLR.
I was attempting to photograph bumble bees doing their thing in the garden quite unsuccessfully (manual focus lens, shallow focus, fast moving object, etc) but this bee was just taking its time in the flower - covered in pollen. Unfortunately I think it was at the end of its life - was still there this morning, still moving but very slowly. A night away from the hive.
My six year old daughter was in tears when she realised.
