18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Welcome To My World

This past summer I lived in rural West Virginia to stay safe and spent a lot of time with the insects. This was a day for bees. I loved getting to know their world and they seemed to be telling me stories daily. I learned their different buzzes as they sped around my head checking me out. Only got stung once and that was my fault.
