7/26/2003: Pollenated bumblebee

Undertoad · 07-26-2003, 11:26 AM

Last week's MSNBC Week in Pics had this beaut of a bumblebee, hoving over a pumpkin flower and getting dusty with pollen. This is such a great macro shot! Remarkable!

Following this picture, Ron Winn was stung and died of anaphylactic shock due to a beesting allergy.

Looks like Scarface in his last stand on the balcony.

Wipe your feet before you come into this house, young man!

You know, when you think about it (and you shouldn't too much, really), isn't pollen basically flower jizz?

At the musuem I worked at a couple years ago, we held an exhibit on the wildlife photography of one Dr. McKeever. He had some fantastic shots, particularly of insects, and a bunch of shots of different flies. I asked him during the reception on how he would get the flies in the shot with such detail. His reply?

"Endless patience."
