I am taking a class--Painting With a Lens--taught by Rod & Robin Deutschmann. Today was the first day. I am learning some new techniques that I find most exciting to learn!

I took this and the other images posted here as is by making the adjustments in the camera before I took the photo.
Here you can see the tiny bee in flight.
