I should not do these but I think if you go slowy with them you are sort of safe.
The reason to why i should keep away from them is I am allergic to their stings.
The last one I go was when a Bell somehow got into our moving car.
I felt the stick as it hit me o my neck.
Lucky for me we were heading home and my doctor is on the was home.
The wife told the lady at the counter and she called the doctor.
He hit me up with the reverser thing and then I had to stay there for another 4 hours.
He just wanted to make sure I was okay and no flare ups.
So here are a couple from home.

I am willing to learn and will listen to what other have to say.
But if I don't like it, never take offense to it.
It is just something that I may not like.

Lovely shots.
You are right, bees are generally pretty peaceable. I've never been stung by anything I was photographing apart from ants.

I have had a few that sort of got a little angry with me being there.
As they just thing around me but then went back to work.
These are a great insect to get right and I think I have done with these.

But still knowing I might be able to get it even better is something to look forwards to.
I hope I am never to that point as, I like to learn and it might take a while for what has been said.
So I don't ignore, I'm just slow to add in the new info.
