Peter Watson, Evening meal (February theme: Colour)

I took this in the garden in the early evening, after noticing the bees descending on the flowers. The shallow depth of field made the flower look like the bee - mid aerobatics - had released a puff of purple smoke. cCanon 5DS R with 100-400mm lens at 400mm. Speedlite flash.
