The last few days my cherry tree has been in full bloom and I've been getting to capture images of visitors to the blooms. Here are some of the photos I've gotten in the last day or so.

What kind of camera and settings do you use to take these photos? They are absolutely breathtaking. :)

Mayliah, Thanks for your kind comment. I use a Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel for most of my photos and my setting for catching the bee in flight was: 1/800s f/5.6 at 300.0mm iso100 full exif. For the slightly slower moving butterflies:1/500s f/5.6 at 160.0mm iso100 full exif. All taken with my 70-300mm Canon Lens. Thank you also, DanoB and nikki! :-) Jane
