Fireweed Serendipity
While I was shooting this top-down photo of fireweed in Chatanika Alaska, a bee flew into the frame. I love the addition of the bee and really appreciate what it brings to the image.

I’m thinking it’s not a bee, but a fly that looks like a bee (mimic)
Nice colors

It like nature’s own fireworks show! Cool pic!

It seems so unscripted that if I saw it in a magazine (without your photo credit) I’d question if it were photo shopped.
