That's pretty, what kind of plant is it?




I have one... they're beautiful... very tough.



Lookup Purple Pinwheels...



they're from the Canary Islands I think.

Quote from: "TheVancouverGuy"These are great photos. Shot handheld? I bought a Canon 100mm f2.8L 2 months ago.

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'm cured of macro now...lol

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.
