The view from my 3rd floor hotel room window in Lucerne, Switzerland. Jack hammers and grinders all the way, along with concrete mixers and cranes. The end result was to be a huge function/conference room add-on for the hotel.

I watched this little female bluebird building her nest today. I was astounded by her industriousness and swiftness. She kept coming back to the nesting box over and over again, her tiny beak filled to capacity with grass, straw, sticks, pine needles. Then, when I thought I’d seen it all, she popped onto the box with a big feather in her beak. After the foundation had been laid, it seems she was adding a bit of flourish to her decor. A true home engineer, Mother Bluebird did the job by herself. By midday, she was sweltering hot and worn out. Papa Bluebird, surprisingly, did not lift a claw to help. I guess he’s saving his energy for all the hunting he’ll have to do when those babies hatch and start squawking for grub!

This photo was inspired by Miklos Gaál. By playing with focal distances, Miklo could turn everyday scenes into strange cardboard cut-outs. These construction worker are tranformed into scale models in a world almost constructed by a child’s imagination. All this just by shallowing the depth of field… so simple. Although my figures appear larger, as I wanted to vary it a lot from Miklos Gaál’s photos: / Miklos Gaál: Sightseeing tour Here’s another one of mine if you’re not convinced by the illusion:

This digitally manipulated image depicts the building of the foundations of “John Lewis Partnership” in Kingston Upon Thames, Surrey. Please do take a look at my website; jennymeehan.co.uk and see the “Featured Work” section for more detailed information on this image and the thinking behind it. I sold the first signed canvas to John Lewis Partnership in 2007! This is available direct from me as part of an artists numbered edition; that is, signed by me.

In Liverpool today, on some unwanted ‘business’ (at least i brought my camera!). What a rainy day it’s been today, at least it stopped for a couple of hours and i was able to get quite a few good images, here’s the first of a few. / These guys made me laugh, when i was shooting them i tried to get them to talk a little so i asked “So, when are you up to now?”, I then snapped this just as the one on the right replied “Just standin’ around”.... —-——- Albert docks, Liverpool, UK

The Jesuit priests, the Society of Jesus, have been in service to the parish of St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in Grand Coteau, Louisiana, since 1835. Most of those who came in the early 1800s were Europeans, primarily French and Belgians, and they are buried in this old cemetery behind the church. Some of the tombs are 100 years old, and time and the massive roots of the surrounding live oaks have buckled the ground beneath them and tilted them at odd angles. Two of my favorite places to visit are the tomb of Henry Bonroy, a Belgian novice who was under 21 when he died in an accident when a steam powered boiler burst on the building site of the church where he was working. The other favorite visiting place is the tomb of Dutchman Cornelius Otten who was the chief architect and builder of St. Charles Borromeo. This was the first of several churches this industrious Jesuit built during the course of his lifetime.

Look closely to see this male osprey helping with some touches to their nest. The female is in the nest. You can barely see her head peeking out. I took this yesterday at the Flaming Gorge on the Wyoming side Marina. These nesting poles have been erected to help because there are no trees. These osprey are wild birds not captive in any way. I could really use some help. I am using a laptop for editing and minor adjustments to the screen will change the lighting and color. Let me know what you think. THANKS!

I believe this is an orb weaver.. pixie if i’m wrong on this let me know please hun. one of the canadian spiders,, this guy isn’t all that big. i’ve seen bigger The orb-weaver spiders (family Araneidae) are the builders of spiral wheel-shaped webs often found in gardens, fields and forests. The family is a large one, including over 2800 species in over 160 genera worldwide, making it the third largest family of spiders known (behind Salticidae and Linyphiidae). The oldest known orb-weaving spider is Mesozygiella dunlopi, with specimens in amber dating from the Early Cretaceous. Generally, orb-weaving spiders are three-clawed builders of flat webs with sticky spiral capture silk. The building of a web is an engineering feat, begun when the spider floats a line on the wind to another surface. The spider secures the line and then drops another line from the center, making a “Y”. The rest of the scaffolding follows with many radii of non-sticky silk being constructed before a final spiral of sticky capture silk. The third claw is used to walk on the non-sticky part of the web. Characteristically, the prey insect that blunders into the sticky lines is stunned by a quick bite and then wrapped in silk. If the prey is a venomous insect, such as a wasp, wrapping may precede biting. / Marbled Orb Weaver Araneus marmoreus. / Marbled Orb Weaver Araneus marmoreus. Some “orb-weavers” do not build webs at all. Members of the genera Mastophora in the Americas, Cladomelea in Africa and Ordgarius in Australia produce sticky globules, which contain a pheromone analog. The globule is hung from a silken thread dangled by the spider from its front legs. The pheromone analog attracts male moths of only a few species. These get stuck on the globule and are reeled in to be eaten. Interestingly, both types of bolas spiders are highly camouflaged and difficult to locate. The spiny orb-weaving spiders in the genera Gasteracantha and Micrathena look like plant seeds or thorns hanging in their orb-webs. Some species of Gasteracantha have very long horn-like spines protruding from their abdomens. One feature of the webs of some orb-weavers is the stabilimentum, a crisscross band of silk through the center of the web. It is found in a number of genera, but Argiope, which includes the common garden spider of Europe as well as the yellow and banded garden spiders of North America, is a prime example. The band has been hypothesized to be a lure for prey, a marker to warn birds away from the web and a camouflage for the spider when it sits in the center of the web. Most arachnid webs are vertical and the spiders usually hang with their head downward. A few webs, such as those of orb-weaver in the genus Metepiera have the orb hidden within a tangled space of web. Some Metepiera are semi-social and live in communal webs. In Mexico such communal webs have been cut out of trees or bushes and used for living fly paper.[
