Quick! Before the bees come. . .

These are poppies. Our friend, Hai Dang, grows them in his back yard garden, then shoots them with a macro lens and flash at f22. The blossoms are less than three inches across. He says he has to capture the pollen early before the bees come because they tromp around and get the subject all mussed up. The depth and details in his photos are amazing. So is Hai.
