This was an advert at the airport which caught my eye. I love the colours…
well It’s not just red bubble is it. / /
This is a drawing of a great dane (using staedtler pencils).
Hand cut and paste with sizzors and glue, then scanned into computer and manipulated.
This very colourful character is one of the gaudy Tectocoris diophthalmus (Cotton Harlequin Bug) species. / I found it on a stroll around a large pond at Timbertown, an historic theme park, at Wauchope, NSW, Australia, on a summer afternoon. / I had a devil of a time photographing it as every time I moved around to make a shot, it would move around the opposite side of the stem, leaf or seed pod. Most unco-operative! Camera: Fuji S9600; Macro Mode; Aperture Priority; f/8; 1/60sec; 17mm; WB Daylight; ISO 80; Low powered Flash; Hand held. / Processing: S7RAW & Photoshop CS. Find out more about the Cotton Harlequin Bug and Timbertown if you wish. Visit the Insects & Spiders collection in my BubbleSite Gallery for more six legged beetle-browed critters. Enjoy!

Such beautiful ducks enjoying the coastal waters of Maine.

A variation on Clown Low Down – actually, a step on the way to it, but one I decided I liked and wanted to keep.

Male Harlequin at Dyer Point in Cape Elizabeth Maine taken 12-3-08
People were rude and kept getting in the way while I tried to take those girls’ picture. I finally snapped this one but I couldn’t include the other two fully in the frame sigh

Thought this design was missing something, just an alternative
Black tie may be optional, but Red shoes are Required. This is the second of my red shoe series. Fire flaming red, against a harlequin background, is enough to knock your socks off. About the Original: / Red Shoe Required / by Alma Lee / Size: 8×12” / Materials:Color Pencil and Marker / Media: MDF Panel / Original Status: available through Artist
This piece is playful and pure with a serenity born of limited colors and simple design elements. In the artist’s opinion dieties can be joyful(as well they should be!). The painting should make the viewer smile. Original Size: 48” X 48” / Medium: Acrylic on Canvas
Maybe….can anyone confirm this bug for me please? / So pretty in the sun, very green and shimmery with red on his back. Taken at Ravenshoe, Far Nth Queensland, Australia with Canon PowerShot A480
If photography deals with light (which it does inherently), it also deals with shadow. A play, if you will, on this. (As an aside, since the Bayer patterning is an intrinsic byproduct of the digital machine, why not embrace it?) I could be wrong. I can say with assurance that I don’t like this; it reminds me of something out of Ridley Scott’s “Alien” and definitely gives me the fucking creeps. Too many insectile forms comin’ after me . . . too damn fast with nowhere to go. Therefore, I like it. Go figure. Art’s just one of those difficult things; it ain’t easy on the viewer and the artists generally self-destruct from it. So, the question would be, why do we have/do it? It must serve some Darwinian purpose, however small its impact is. I may have to email Dawkins about this. I mean, since Darwin’s account is no longer active and all that.
