I haven’t drawn a canine in a very long time :)
This shot was taken in a small concrete hut, a hut as large as a small bedroom, a hut with four men and two children weaving together various peices of wicker furniture. This particular man, whose hand is the focus was working on a chair. Such intricate labor intensive work requiring such attention to make a piece so often taken for granted. This shot too was taken in Pakistan.

Viewed on RB 1599 times as of 11/28 /09 I took this shot of this large golden orb-weaver or black and yellow garden spider – argiope aurantia at the Fern Ridge Wildlife Area Eugene, Oregon. You can tell by the size of the fly in the web just how large this spider is.
Here is the piece I mentioned from which The Furnace was cropped As mentioned this was a piece I created for educational use. Please feel free to work with and learn from the params. Remember that the artwork in its original form is otherwise copyright but you may create original pieces based on the techniques herein – and a credit would be nice as well as a link to your work would be appreciated in return for the share The params didn’t copy across to well for this on RD due to their css formatting but you can grab them here fir not Weaver and forge params I will shortly have them up on my site for download too: http://www.zooreka-art.com Gotta get better first though
A Golden Palm Weaver taken in Mombasa, Kenya. This bird was part of a large colony of around 20 -30 birds.
This orb weaver presented the perfect subject for the use of the Redfield Fractalius glow filter. I believe it gives this image a sense of mystery and an inner spirit. Photographed in a local city park in Fort Frances, Ontario.

Golden Palm Weavers make a nest of thin palm leaves woven into a hollow ball. These birds are not over-fussy as to where they build their nest and will pick a convenient tree that takes their fancy even if its very close to a house. The set of weaver photographs shows the male of a pair that built their nest in a shaded part of the garden of the house we were staying in at Kilifi on the Kenyan coast north of Mombasa – the pink tone to some of the shots is from the wall of the house. As with most birds, the male did all the work while his mate perched on a nearby branch supervising operations. At one point during the two-day construction process, she came to inspect and clearly wasn’t satisfied since she kicked the nest to the ground, forcing the male to start all over again. She did, however, bring him the odd juicy caterpillar from time to time. The male seemed tireless in his efforts, working from dawn to dusk, flying in with one palm leaf after another. Some didn’t fit the bill so he flew away with them again. The completed nest was a tight green ball that quickly went brown on the third day as the leaves dried out.
