I love observing nature’s designs and am fascinated by the centers of sunflowers. I love sunflowers, such happy sun filled joys! 🌻🌻🌻🌻

Started this bumblebee drawing for World Bee Day. I focused on texture with my .3mm Pentel Graphgear and 2B lead, resisting the urge to create too much detail. Flowers got less love, but still pop. Tagging this with #RareLittleThings as a teaser–announcement coming soon! 😉😊 #sciart

First post here, hope you like it. This is one of those shots you have to suffer for. A long walk (for me!) in the dark over snow covered limestone pavement. Sat there for ages in sporadic blizzards waiting for dawn and questioning my sanity. #photographersofbluesky #photography #landscape #nature
