Apis Mellifera
(Western honey bee)
Taken April 18, 2021
Last week I've been photowalking in the Alps few times. I've found not many butterflies but a lot of bees and flies. Perhaps it was still a bit too cold (weather was not the best).
When I posted this photo in my Instagram story some people asked me how it is possible to take a well framed photo of a rapidly moving insect as a bee. The answer is simple... you take 1375631364144 photos and hope one of them it is good :-)
