(5D Mark II, 300mm, ISO 100, 1/80 @ f/10)
The weather has been a bit inconsistent this winter and was quite chilly this morning. When I looked at these crocuses yesterday, they were open; not so much around 10am today. I guess they curl up to protect themselves from the cold?
I took a few other shots this afternoon when they opened up again and bees started pollinating. I’ve always wanted to get an awesome close-up or macro while they’re busy at work, but for me, it’s definitely easier said than done. Stay tuned for that post tomorrow ๐
Toot-a-loo!
