Though I've been working flat out lately, I had quite some time ago planned to take the day off today to attend a BMW "VIP Racing Experience", up at our local racetrack. They sent invites out to a group of people (some customers from different dealerships) for a half day event where you get to drive some of the latest models of BMWs on a (timed) autocross course, and do some lead-follow, with a pro driver on the track at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Perfect weather, great cars, and an overall fun day. I really needed the break...

Went to the dahlia garden today and got the mandatory bee on dahlia shot. See my non-bee shot in my 52 week challenge thread.

Very nice.
We were a little late in planting our dahlias this year -- they just started blooming this week.

Not at the track and definitely not a BMW -- I had just sat down to change camera settings and took this trial shot. I would have discarded it except for the contrast with Paul's set.

Well I was at the local Royal Botanical Gardens, around the kid's play area there are sunflowers and I was just snapping a shot of one with a bee on it. When I got home - noticed there was a smaller bee coming in to sneak on the same flower it looked it.

Hummer outside my front window. Wish I didn't need to shoot it through glass!
