Last Friday Mafalda and I took the opportunity to enjoy the sunny and warm weather and headed out of Oxford on a motorcycle trip to the Cotswolds. About an hour away is a small farm in Snowshill that grows lavender. Lots and lots of lavender. The timing of our trip was lucky in that the fields were in full bloom, and they were scheduled for harvest the following week. We took many pictures, and enjoyed the pleasant aroma from the fields. There were so many bees flying around that if you stood still for a few seconds you could hear them all buzzing. I followed this bee and his loaded pollen sacks for a while until I got a picture that might be in focus.
1/160s f/8.0 60mm ISO 100. Cropped. Au revoir until next week.
