AudioHive / For the sound competition.. Printed sample of AudioHive natural shown here, thanks to Ruby red: / I sat and thought about sound, what it is, what it means. Our attraction to sound is primal, as universal as the world itself. / It has structure and body, with no definable form. It can be all things, / natural, mechanical & electric. Sound brings us together, forms and strengthens communities. So this design is a visual representation of those thoughts.. I hope you enjoy it. Details can be seen: / here / and here NOTE: I`ve uploaded 2 different colourways for this design, which I normally wouldn`t do, but both speak / of something to do with my concept. Let me know which you think is the better entry? And if you like it enough please throw a vote my way

The last strike for the night! Taken on one side of a valley where 5 roads intersect hence the name Bee Hive…

A large percentage of the world’s honeybees have been MIA lately. Nobody knows for sure what the causes are, and we are just beginning to grasp what the effects in long term may be, but I am absolutely certain of one thing – this can’t be good news for Winnie The Pooh! This was my first project for my Digital Illustration class with David Hylton. Pen & Ink drawing, scanned into Photoshop, then colored in using different textures from photographs. Turned out to be a pretty big hit among my peers :)

The honeybee teaches about community and harmony. One lesson we can take from this is that the well-being of any community is dependent on the health and contribution of each of its members. One member cannot take on all the responsibilities, nor can one sit back and reap all the benefits without harming the community in a negative way. Another lesson is that sometimes one can work too hard, ignoring the others in the community who can contribute, risking their health from stress and depleted health. Think of the classic workaholic. Being part of a community means knowing you cannot do it all, and asking for help when it is needed. It also means to step up and help out those who need it. We can also learn from the honeybee about conserving and preparing for the future. By balancing working roles, the hive (the community) can run efficiently and create a harmonious living environment. To the Ancient Egyptians, honeybees were believed to be the tears of the sun god Ra and honey was believed to be a symbol of resurrection and protected against evil spirits. In Ancient Greece the honeybee was thought to be messengers for the gods. The Priestesses of the Oracle in Delphi were sought to answer questions about the future and past. The Priestesses sat on three-legged stools near a spot where sweet-smelling fumes rose up through an omphalos stone, which was hollow and shaped similar to a bee hive. The exterior of the omphalos stone was carved with the images of honeybees. The Honeybee was sacred to the Celtic goddess Brigid, who kept an orchard in the Otherworld, which was visited by bees.

This is one of my Australian Native Stingless Bees, taking out the garbage. I have a hive in my back yard and these little girls are a constant source of fascination for me. They are about 5mm long and move around very quickly. This was taken with my Nikon D70, Tamron 90mm Macro + a 36mm Kenko extension tube.

What are the objects that one might use when watching the tube? Or the other thing that they might be doing at the same time? Having something to drink is the first thing that comes to mind. And besides the beverage by itself, we often use straws! This is a macro of a bundle of drinking straws, aimed at the TV. The gray and red colours are from the Montreal Canadian hockey game! This is part of a little experimental series I’m doing on the television screen seen through various objects used in the living room. Focal length 55mm / ISO-100 / Aperture f/5,6 / Shutter 1/2 sec. / Shot in manual mode Nikon D60 / AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f3.5-5.6G VR / Close-up filters: CU+1, CU+2 and CU+3 /

This is a blue version of Hive, a recent photo I made which was part of an experimental series showing the television screen seen through various objects used in the living room. This one is a macro shot of a bundle of drinking straws, aimed at the TV. Obviously, the screen was showing something blue! The actual straws measure less than 5mm in diameter. I used a shorter focal length for this one, and we can see more of the straws in it. Focal length 22mm / ISO-100 / Aperture f/5,6 / Shutter 1/3 sec. / Shot in manual mode / White balance set to tungsten Nikon D60 / AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f3.5-5.6G VR / Close-up filters: CU+1, CU+2 and CU+3 Featured in the group Unconventional Artistry on January 3, 2008 Finished in 8th position of Top 10 in the Blue Abstractions challenge of the Out of the Blue (75%+ Blue Artwork) group on January 13, 2009

KIDS, DON’T TRY THIS! IT’S NEITHER SAFE NOR SMART!!! Oh well, sometimes you goof and this shoot was a goof. I had it planned out so well too but forgot one small detail. The Nikon D80 was on a tripod with the 55-200 telephoto lens aimed dead centre into the hole on the tree. I used the remote to trigger it while I used the Panasonic to move all the way over the hive and shoot video. What was SUPPOSED to happen was I’d get a photographic record of my shooting the video from less than 2 inches from the hive using a macro setting. I’d get some still from that distance too if I was feeling brave. What HAPPENED was I forgot the D80’s focus was too tight on the opening of the hive and it completely missed or didn’t show the other camera or my hand. Arrgh! But taking so many shots in a row DID shed so light on the entire hive. First and most important was that I couldn’t see bees disappearing into the cracks in the bark of the tree without shots less than one second apart and very close. While I though there was one way into the hive, there are actually at least two additional ways – one of them under my hand in the previous shot! This time, my hand wasn’t covering the way out for the bees not using the main entrance and they came out to find something new in their way. I had a sweat shirt with significantly tighter opening but they wound up all over it rather quickly. I was able to gently remove them but it took a while to figure out the problem – like, only after I was back home. :-| Second interesting thing was the bee dance was obvious on the bark outside the hole. I was able to watch the twists and turns while a circle of bees learned the positions of the nectar and pollen. And by watching, I was able to distinguish two different locations, wherever they actually were. (Remember, I’m neither a bee nor good at reading bee dances.) I think you can even see the different pollen sources in the colours the bees are carrying. This also explained the other half of the constant bumping into me: the bees that followed the instructions were the ones who took off from the circle but the instructions didn’t account for a dumb human and a camera in the immediate path. It would appear that bees aren’t using a whole lot of sight when taking off; they’re probably trying to remember all those damn twists and turns with brains the size of pin heads. Third, there are no bees that look an different from each other so it appears that all are just plain, common but rare honeybees. However, using the quick shooting of the Panasonic TZ-4, I was now able to recognize who was coming and going and who was just watching me. Again, I only figured this out at home but it helped explain why I was attacked twice. Still no stings but it wasn’t fun being chased around a bit by a single hive protector two times. Now I’m faced with a dilemma. I can’t brace myself against the tree now because I know there will be bees coming out where my hands are. I also can’t offer amended flight plans avoiding my camera hand for bees heading for the pollen using the right flight plans. I can correct the D80 composition issue but my last time of ignorant luck has come and gone. I think I know too much now to be calm not knowing if there are two more exits or TEN more exits. Odds are, I’m done with this one. Let me amend that: I’M DONE WITH THIS ONE. Ladybugs, geese, squirrels, and now bees have been The Gonzo Photographer’s target face-to-face subjects. I think I’ll aim for ants or unusual mud formations that resemble faces until I can pull my heart out of my throat. Then I might graduate to pill bugs. Yeah. That seems safe enough. PS Without the flash, you couldn’t see much definition of the bees or the hive. I didn’t want to use it but wasn’t afraid to with the telemacro possibility preventing any fears of spooking even more ‘watcher’ bees.
