Through the Violet Veil – Carpenter Bee I

Peering through a veil of soft lavender blooms, a Carpenter Bee locks eyes with the lens—its glossy, worn face a testament to tireless days in flight. The petals frame its path like curtains parting for a quiet entrance, revealing not just a pollinator, but a presence. Caught between focus and blur, this moment bridges observer and observed in a fragile balance of color, motion, and attention.
