This time of year, I stop to photograph blooms, and this is where you find bees. In such moments, I take the opportunity to photograph these hard-working insects. My 06/03/23 postcard features, yet again, a bee nestled on an onion flower near Alvarado Park. To avoid being repetitive, I transformed the image into a painting-like representation.
