Closer than yesterday

Posted by dobbino (Cape Town, South Africa) on 5 March 2009 in Plant & Nature.

Special request from yesterday. Here we have just two different flowers from a different cluster. The one on the left with the straight stamens has just recently opened, while the main flower has already been visited by the bees.
Same process as yesterday - and BTW - I also set the camera on a 2-second delay shutter setting to minimise shake, for both yesterday's and today's photos.

Title from the song by Renaissance
