"Bees do it"



As I took these macro shots I found myself humming Cole Porter's darling love song, Let's Fall in Love. Last Friday eve, my 17 year old daughter secured home for the night with our youngest boys, we went to see the newest Woody Allen movie, Midnight in Paris. It was a very cool look back in time at what it was like for like minded artists in Paris in the earlier 1900's. You feel like you have spent a week in Paris after seeing this movie. Which was nice for us since we never made it there for our "20th" wedding anniversary this year. :( ( the cost of flights are crazy!) Last night I finished reading A Move able Feast by Hemingway, a memoir of his time in Paris. He too is featured in the Woody Allen flick. These visual and literary feasts I have been devouring lately have been very satisfying. And then, I am in my own front yard with my camera and voyeuristic tendencies, trying to get a macro photo of a flower or bee and stumble upon these two couples. Lol. Porter is right. Bees do "do it".
Linking with Pink Saturday http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/, and Flowers on Saturday.

  1. Stunning Macros!!! I'm inspired to see Midnight in Paris now as I can't remember if I've seen it before. A vicarious trip to Paris just might be 'The Ticket' for my need to wander. I'm visiting from Pink Saturday.

  2. Paris sounds perfect right about now! Love the photos, the colors of the flowers are so brilliant I didn't even really notice the bees behavior until I read your post, lol.
