Aster & Bee

Yesterday I found a newly-blooming patch of Asters along the roadside near our farm.  Excitedly, I snapped a series of shots.  Once back in the house, upon opening the photos on the computer, I was amazed to find a well-focused bee had stowed away on one of them. 

My original intention was simply to try and get a decent shot of an Aster blossom.  They’re only about an inch wide and are difficult to photograph clearly without a macro lens.
