in your own back yard.
Summer does not get …
any better than this.

Beautiful macros Jientje, and I love lavender too.
My goodness, up close and personal with bees! I have lavender in my yard, and the bees certainly like it, but I haven't tried to photograph them this way. Wonderful!
I have a lavender post I shall put up on my photoblog so we can be twins! I did not capture awesome bees, though. Alas.
Damn no bee sex? LOL. Wonderful and you are right summer can't get any better. Have a great time at your daughters. Aloha :)
There IS a bug in my lavender! Come see if you can find it!
These are lovely.
Gives me such a peaceful summer feeling!
Don't worry, BEE happy...
Great shots...:-)
Bee careful beeing busy today, beecause Bee love you Jientje!
Great series - I hope the bumble bee didn't get stuck in those spider web threads.
Lavender is such a wonderful plant - ah, the joys of nature! My daughter (who is 7) explained to me the importance of bees and flowers yesterday.
Nice shots. Really enjoy seeing things through your eyes. I hope that doesn't sound too personal, except to say, you have a nice way of looking at life.
You can't do any damage to our economy (with your beautiful pictures of home made food), we do a pretty good job of it all by ourselves.
I LOVE catching bees and moths and butterflies on my flowers in macro...you can see all their wonderful fuzziness and color!
Beautiful photos, I can almost smell the lavender! How wonderful!
Do you have Lupus too? I thank you for your sweet comments and support!!!
Hugs,

Beautiful, Jientje ! compliments ! Bees are an insect I like it's not too ugly little ladybugs too. Lavender is another story, reminds me old people, lol !
lavender reminds me of my grandma's bedroom. The pictures are amazing
I love these photos of the lavender and the bee.

You managed to get three bees in one shot! And I love the bee caught in the web!
Bees and lavender - a lovely combination.
Magnificent shots of the bees, Jientje. I've been trying to get a shot of one all summer. But these are sublime.
Wonderful, wonderful pictures.
