I stood around these flowers for about 20 minutes trying to get a shot of the bees staying still, because they kept flying away as soon as I focused my shot. (Using an f1.4 lens means I had to take a bit more time focusing each picture, and the bees kept moving!) Hopefully this shot turned out well with my new f1.4 lens, and I really like it.

(Note: I don't know why the exif data says it's an f4, because it's an f1.4 fixed lens.)
