I haven't taken much notice of the bees in my garden but on a walk along the canal towpath yesterday there seemed to be lots visiting the bramble flowers there.

I like the MX-1 for its quality and compact convenience, and I've always wished for an upgrade to MX-2, with a 1 inch sensor and a viewfinder.

The images were captured on a high contrast day, so the MX-1's D-Range settings were switched on and the exposure set to keep the highlights on the histogram. In the images the foreground shadow areas were rather dark, so they were lifted using PaintShop Pro's fill-light tool. Other tweaks included some perspective adjustment, slightly increasing the blue in the sky, and adding a bit of local contrast (clarity).
