Excellent!

This is a silly question, but how do you happen to be in a time and place to photograph this event?

Hi Rik,
This image is from the Chiconcuac bee farms at Mexico, in summer is amazing.
You can choose between staying put and be very patient (really not my style), or shoot everything and then work at the computer. This was a lucky shoot indeed but I remember a bee did sting me that day.
You can control bees with your mind, you know? (That is, controlling yourself).

Like being at the right place at the right time. Excellent DOF & focus Caronte.

A most unusual image Caronte. Maybe even worth the sting.
