A short video bees collecting pollen.  Video is hand held shots on a windy day (03/08/2014) in a local country house kitchen garden.

For anyone thinking of capturing video like this I would advise use of a 'steady device' or an assistant to hold the flowers still on a windy day.- neither were available at the time of shooting.

Camera: Sony HDR-X520EV with 0.7x wide angle converter (VCL-HGA07), focus and exposure set to Auto.

Processing in MEP - transition and fade in/out only

Hi John,

 

Macro video practice of  is not apparent because windless days are uncommon.

However good job.

or an assistant to hold the flowers still on a windy day

 Good idea or, may be, attach the flower stem.

 

DéDé.
