One of those lovely days at my mum's garden when I could jut shoot and shoot. The day was warm, light was good, flowers were blooming all around me and I had this Biotar lens to try out. Just couldn't get any better :)
After all the blue and red blooms I turned to those few yellow lilies. With all the lush green foliage around they really popped! As a bonus I got a little bee inside one of the flowers.
So I took few shots, then turned to another flowers and when I looked back the bee was still there... Not normal for those busy little fells.
I got closer and..
Can you see it?
Let me zoom for ya :)
The poor thing was not there to eat. She was there to be eaten!
And a quite a fantastic yellow crab spider was just waiting for the right time. Those spiders blend so well with the flowers they hunt on they become completely invisible. Most often I notice them only when they are already busy with the insect they got. My second favourite spiders after the cute jumping ones. Though those do scare me a bit.
