This weeks theme in The Gallery over at the yummy cupcake(mmmm i want one please!) picture taking Sticky Fingers, is Still Life.
I took these photos last summer at my boyfriends parents garden, during a brief Burton nap break one sunny Sunday afternoon.
I love sunflowers: to me they seem such happy flowers and epitomise summer with their radiant golden colours. Bees are such busy little things, and to capture one taking it easy for a moment to savour the sweet sunflower nectar was great to watch and capture through my lens.

I LOVE sunflowers! If you go back a couple of days on my blog you’ll see a trip to a sunflower maze it was gorgeous!
I love how clear the bee came out, you almost want to hug him he’s so fuzzy! Probably not a good idea though! Yikes!

uuugh shudders… why did I look!? i’m scared of bees and wasps… well wasps especially due to standing in a wasps hive when I was a kid and them getting their revenge on me on mass…
but in the quick skim down they looked great shots!! well done!
(I certainly couldn’t have got that close hehe!)
