I found a bumblebee resting just between the shadow and full sun during my lunchbreak today. Unfortunately I didn't have my flash with me (just body + 100mm macro), so I had to limit the DoF.

Still, I'm glad these were basically my first keepers of the season in the insect category anyway

All are clickable, and there's a few on my flickr. However, they are all quite similar...
