Opal Tribble

I love the Datura Flower not only does it have a lovely fragrance it sure is beautiful to look at. In the evenings the flowers close. If a bee or any other insect is in their collecting from the flower they are trapped until morning. The buzzing of the frantic bee usually alerts me to the fact that they are trapped inside the flower. I usually rescue them. The ones that I don't rescue I'll see emerging from the flower the following morning. I used my Nikon D80 to take this photo. The lens used is a Nikon Nikkor 70-210mm 1:4 - 5.6. Photo's were uploaded in Aperture 1.5. There was no editing that needed to be completed but I decided to add something extra. I uploaded this picture into Adobe's Photoshop Elements 4 Mac version. I used the Impressionist Brush to blur the background.
