University Parks: Osteospermum and Thistledown

Closer in large.

I'm back to studying flight; perhaps that pushed me towards this pair of propellers and wind-borne seed...
I've also uploaded a failed attempt at a 1/8000" honey bee in flight as an extra; using f/4.0 was a little ambitious, and the narrow DOF made the pic. a bit of a dud (unless you're mad about abdomens...). Using so fast a shutter speed froze the motion of the wings, so I'll be back next time it's so sunny, but'll use a smaller aperture and higher ISO.

I've uploaded a handful of pics to Flickr (right from the first alternative).
