As I was working in the ecogarden at school, this bee decided it wanted to hang out with us and look pretty. I managed to snap two photos before it was gone again.

How do you adjust the focus on such a small fast moving object?

It was hanging in the air, quite still. I put the (manual) focus at the shortest possible distance (ca 40 cm) and then took several pictures, hoping one of them would turn out OK.

what I try to do is focus on something around the same distance and hope for the best
i can get a shot like this but it's usually in the middle of 15-20 very quick shots that are throwaways
