While we eat, work and sleep, more than 20,000 species of bees are busy all over the world. They pollinate many plant species and thus contribute to the conservation of our natural habitat.

'Bees' introduces you in a new way to these small wonders of nature. Sam Droege and Laurence Packer bring more than a hundred striking species from all over the world into the limelight as you have never seen them: up close and in an impressively high resolution. Apparently alien faces stare at you.

Be enchanted by shades of color, patterns and bright yellow or deep blue spots and stripes. Whether you start with a thorough study of the honeybee or immediately browse to the rare Dinagapostemon sicheli, the beauty of the bees depicted will certainly surprise you.
