Picture taken at dusk right before sunset. I was trying to shoot a small bird in the garden of friends when I stumbled upon this small patch of lavender where a group of bumblebees were.
Managed to take this picture before the sun set while struggling to focus using spot auto-focus, my camera not having a dedicated insect auto-focus.

Shot using the OM System OM-1 Mark I with the 40-150mm f/2.8 at 150mm (ISO 800, 1/320s, f/2.8) at the closest focusing distance of 70cm / 27 inches.
