Beehive

By on November 8, 2013

I’ve discovered a sticky beehive inside the tall rocks in the garden.This is a natural beehive and not a man-made.I was amazed to see for the first time a great number of young honeybees inside the beehive.This is where the stinging honeybees stored their wax cells for rainy food. I’m just curious about their nesting areas.One thing I loved about bees behavior is they know how to adjust to certain environment,they collect honey during dry days and save it. Just a way of getting ready ahead of time.

Beehive is  dark brown in color, sticky and very shiny. The visible structure is durable, good enough to protect the young honeybees inside the hole. With too many holes in uniformed sizes, other holes appeared to be full of honey and some holes for the nesting site of the young ones.

With this discovery,I’ve completed the full version of my articles, It’s all about honeybees, their everyday routine as an agent of pollination, body structure, my morning bonding with honeybees as my subject of photography  and many more… Just don’t forget the importance of what has been contributed previously, my attempt to disturb this honeybees for five minutes in order to take few shots. I’m a honeybee lover and I never plan to drive them away.I will just let them stay behind and let the future takes its place.

I was even surprised to see queen bee making honeycomb.The wax secreted in order to make this certain structure.

Sunny sheltered position in order to get a good view. Quiet tough to move the beehive away from the nesting area. The proper timing,to wait for the mother bees out to pollinate the flowers around is the right time.

If you click the close up, you’ll see the young honeybees still inside the holes. Just wondering, how  a small stinging insect can produce a beehive much bigger and larger than their own size.

Other parts has unfinished portion and broken off. I think the construction is still going on.

Today, morning sky is a bit cloudy with slow rain showers, unlike yesterday that it was clear and sunny. It’s good I was able to photographed  few subjects in the morning. Aw ! You’ll see the result of my photography done yesterday. It’s photography addict, LOL ! I just need these images for blog posts, not necessarily picture attached is important but, with the presence of images related to the topic,you’ll understand what I’m talking about and what is being described. Problems will only exist if the sky is cloudy, the result would be much better with the natural light of the day. I wasn’t aware of the  weather condition about weather forecast. Sometimes, It is supposed to be cloudy but, it turned out to be sunny and vice-versa.

Nowadays, it is really unpredictable. I just have to make  few adjustments of my time. Earlier shooting in advance would be better,I’ll take the opportunity to shoot more during hot dayPhotography practice is already a part of my everyday life. Here’s my subject for today, A flowering plant bearing tiny fruits in an apple green background.

Note: I’m still doing my research. I don’t have reference book  about flowering wild plants.I don’t know the name of these flower. What I can remember, I bought these plant during my visit in Tagaytay city. I can’t remember the name anymore. Next post soon.

Here’s my subject for today !

My everyday routine is  to photograph any subject of the day. Somehow,it’s a source of inspiration that gives me more energy and a soothing feeling from day to day! Normally, photographing is done in the morning just before the hot time of the day. The most interesting part is to express something from nature that dresses my surroundings.

In here, the dramatic light of the sun makes it more interesting to view. Any subject around is quiet easier to find nearby.

Weather is really unpredictable that sometimes,you can see little tornado battering around. It happened late in the afternoon. The thunderstorm and rain had just stopped. I spotted bundle of leaves and dirt rotating, air sounds like soft whistle encircling around. (it was like a sound of pressure cooker) I wasn’t even scared,I was watching it for a minutes.I took my camera  and snapped it.Just after photographing,I realized that it would be very dangerous.I took shelter immediately and closed all the doors.I wasn’t even familiar with it,so with the safety measures to follow. Thanks God! It only a slight one.

Sky Blue with Muntingia Calabura

By on October 9, 2013

Morning glow of the day is to appreciate all the good things in life as it was tightly packed with treasures and beautiful scenery. Watching the flowers take its shape in the morning and rate my favorites is the reason of enjoying the beauty of nature,it is something that I loved to do with passion that gives me a better view of the things around. Photographing the white flowers with the  blue sky  background looks well in a more natural setting,it  is a learning fun and fascinating.
