Nature, The Original Mother

Nature, The Original Mother  by Karen


Canon PowerShot (easy to grab and go)
morning light
This slightly out-of-focus photo is like my own decades-old eyes.  As I am peaking through the layers of flowers in my garden to see the bumble bee that is so busy with gathering food for her next generation I cannot even see her wings clearly.  Nor can you as you gaze at the scene with me!
This fuzzy focus now looks to me like some of those Impressionists' paintings Ann and I saw at the Crystal Bridges art museum yesterday where you get the mood or 'impression' of what you are seeing without the clarity.  It was a beautiful place... the art, the architecture and the landscape.

I practiced this shot 2 days and was able to capture the bee's wings clearly but I prefer this one!

  2. I like it. I tried so hard to get a butterfly but it wouldn't hold still. You must be more patient than I am.
