Great Big Bumble Bee

click for a larger view
The really huge ones that literally do bumble about the garden :)

I opted to go all manual flash on these. I do use ETTL for most of my shots but decided as I was in a rebellious mood (what wth NL shots, F/16 the previous day and so on) I'd go Manual :)
