Welcome to the next challenge which is Bees, Bugs and Butterflies.

I am sure we all have some types of bugs around the house either beautiful or annoying.

If you are like me and don't have a macro lens then you can still take some really good photo's of these tiny creatures.

I have included some links to help us out. Have fun and can't wait to see all the beautiful and not so beautiful Bees, Bugs and Butterflies.

This first link is for most of us that do not have a macro lens.

And for you lucky one's that do have a macro lens, then here is a link for you.

Thanks for hosting, Lorima. Sure is a busy time. Here are some of my favs - I don't often do insects, etc. but these are some of my favs.

Excellent work - all of you folks, we all enjoyed your work. I only wish you would mention your gear, speed and the f stops?
Keep shooting, Mother Nature is amazing!

hswader here. Would like to post a couple of photos for this challenge, but am not sure about it. One, does the photo have to have been taken within the current time frame or could it be one taken a few days earlier? And two, how do I go about sending them in?
Would appreciate any help here. Thanx
