Quivering glances
Timid trust pleads for shutters
Mind-blast softens fright

This is the third photo in my emotion series. In reality, this bumble-bee seemed to be unconcerned about my presence. As long as I didn’t disturb it or approach too closely, it just went about its business. The results of this shot evoked some subtle feelings of hesitation and even trepidation, so I decided to enhance those feelings with some motion blur.

I like your haiku, and the way the bee seems to be hiding a little from view behind the petals.

Hesitation bleeding over into trepidation: love the way you blurred to interpret this reaction on YOUR part to the bee’s reaction. (Chain reaction, do you think?) How often the fears that paralyze our society become a destructive chain reaction.
