Description
I spent nearly an hour chasing after bees in Lincoln Park to get the perfect shot. I didn't get quite as many good shots as I was hoping for, but I managed to take a couple that I was satisfied with. I just wish I didn't have to rely on auto-focus and a slow shutter speed; it really makes it difficult to catch a small, quick creature. But ever since I took that photo of the wasp at the bird fountain I've been facinated with taking photos of insects, so I'll keep trying!Related content

Man, I wouldn't even bother trying to capture a hummingbird with my camera! It'd come out as just a big blur. XD

you can usually catch them holding still on a feeder though. I had a couple of fun experiences with hummers though. I was eating a bright red strawberry popsicle and this hummer came out of no where, hovered in front of me for a second and then ate some of my popsicle. Bet the brain freeze was a rude awakening XD haha!
Another time, I had one poke me in the forehead x_x
