“S” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © I found this little snake slithering around on my lounge room / floor! After watching him for a while and trying to decide / what to do with him, I thought why not take a photo. I / scooped him up into a plastic container and set it under a / downlight on my kitchen bench which produced these / reflections. Meanwhile my son stood guard to make sure / he didn’t escape before I got this shot by standing on the / benchtop and focusing down into the open container. “Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite / and furthermore always carry a small snake.” / ~ W.

“Chasing Shadows” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © A butterfly enthralled by its shadow. “Leaping ahead of me in the moonlight / My looming shadow takes flight. / Rising like a giant, it runs ahead of me / I reach out to touch him / then he turn’s and flees. / I run fast to catch him, but he has / disappered, I wonder why he is so scared. / I only want him to come and play / But my little shadow keeps on running away.” / ~Jac D

Many flowers produce nectar to attract pollinating insects, birds, and bats. Bees collect nectar to make into honey. Nectar is produced in structures called nectaries. Some plants have nectaries located elsewhere, outside the flower. These provide a food source for animals such as ants which in turn defend the plant from harmful insects. Nectar consists primarily of water and varying concentrations of many different sugars, including fructose, glucose, and sucrose.Save the Flowers ...as is straight out of the camera Olympus fe 35/30 314 dpi f-stop 4.6 ISO-100 35mm 36 ...
