As promised a couple of shots of my first bees a couple of years ago. It was a cast swarm and very prolific. I tried using starter strips on the super frames which worked well, thin wax and large cells for maximum honey.
 
I think these are the same ones enjoying the sunshine last year.
 
Very nice photos :)
