Lupin the loop

Thank you all for the lovely comments yesterday, it was nice to finally get the image I wanted. I have walked down that canal towpath towards Blakemere many times and every time until yesterday the Mere was not still enough to get a pleasing reflection, hopefully it won't be so long until the next.

This bee is not quite as sharp as I would like but with the angle of the lupin and the position of the leaf it was impossible to ignore a pleasing composition despite a not quite pin sharp bee.
