Who enjoys the hydrangeas the most? Is it the deer? The bees? Me? The good news is that the bees and I can share the love and leave the plant for each other.
The bees and I both love the white Oak Leaf Hydrangea, and fortunately neither of us damage the plant.
The blue hydrangea is a favorite snack for the deer. The bad news: the deer have stripped my garden and only left one bush with beautiful blossoms for me to enjoy.
My only hydrangea bush that was not eaten by the deer.
These two photographs are also good examples of different ways to process an image. In the white one, I was going for a clean and crisp look; for the blue one, I choose a creamy, more painterly look. I choose an approach based on the strong elements of the photo.

I love hydrangeas, too, we have quite a few in our garden and fortunately no deer, only bees
