  The ornate flower of the  Honeysuckle shrub with its delicate Pistils.
  When photographing   close up you’re always looking to separate the subject from the back ground, this is done primarily  by using  a wide Aperture  the effect can almost give a 3D look as in this shot.
  Another example of how a wide Aperture can blur the background and bring out the subject.
  Here again we see how blurring the background with a shallow depth of field can make the flower pop.
  Can you see him? The humble bumble bee I mean, going about his   work amongst these flowers.

  The symmetry and beauty of nature amazes me some times.
