Flowers of the rosemary herb...about the size of the nail of a little finger...I love the open mouths of the empty flower pods (the flower lasts but a few days and falls out of its pod).

My second camera was a little cheap canon that's only claim to fame was taking good macro shots. I never use it now because it uses AA batteries. I hate that.

Another varity of Pinwheel succulent. My cousin left this plant at my place when she headed off to live in Melbourne. At my place it took off and flowered



Aeonium Haworthii (The Pinwheel Plant) Native to the Canary Islands. Stunning Flower. This plant grows on Canary Island beaches.

Bees only live 6 weeks... they work their little arses off... poor things. We have a pretty good thriving bee population in WA.

OMG, I'll tell you something... my second camera, a little cheap canon drove me nuts trying to score the perfect bee shot. I took literally thousand of bee shots... I never want to take another one again.





I did get a few pretty good bee shots but took thousands of flops.

I tried to take bee shots but they are tiny, fast, and hard to track. What camera do you take birds with? Around November there will be a big bird migration here in Delta.

look, you've got to get a camera with the 4k feature... then you can get motion pictures like this with absolute ease...

Yep, 4k is the bomb but it not the 4k video...they're separate fast shots... you've got a 4k single shots or you can choose a video and extract shots too... they are two separate features.
