Dragonflies as the fastest flyer, excellent catcher and best aviator. They have a very good clear eyesight,they can even snap up their food as they are flying along.This is interesting as they can do two things at the same time; eating while flying. I took this snapshots this morning in our own garden backyard. I’m now focusing my interest to the bugs life. It’s fun to know more about our own insect neighbors; the ugly bugs, the beauty bugs and the beneficial ones. It’s a common insect that you can see in our own surroundings. The close-up images will reveal the external features of a dragonfly. See how it looks!

My macro shot. You can clearly see the external features here. The four transparent wings with a very unique vein designs.
I took only 3 pictures. It’s quite a colourful one. Hoping to snap for more soon.
I’ve collected natural and stunning images of honeybees in a very romantic setting.You can see the worker honeybees: fertile male and female bees getting busy all the time. It really takes a lot of patience to bond with them in order to produce these great number of images.Since these honeybees were already used to my presence everyday,they allow me the permission to take exciting photos of them. For short, they become my instant models now. If you view my previous posts, you’ll see more memorable and beautiful images.I’m just doing great things and justice for the honeybees. I’ve published more than a hundred images including the process of pollination with some interesting facts about it and memorable images to view. It is a series and continous work-out with them everyday and, up to the present. The first part serves as my summer memories with them. Let’s get started. Happy viewing.
The story behind and how did I do it? well, you can read everything about my broad explanation of my 3 A’s artificial background image.
Note: Sorry for the inconvenience.I’m running out of time. I need to cut my time uploading more photos, hence, I’ve missed to explain some photography facts. It’s just a photography tecnique to produce a unique photos, just like these. How did I do it? I will soon explain to my next post. Hoping you’ll visit again and view for more…

The sunrays of the morning sun shows dancing rhythm of light that splashes visible range of colour brightness; red-orange,yellow,blue and purple glow.In the midst of darkness,the brilliant light source from the sun is shining through.It was taken early morning in a bright sunrise.You can just imagine the great amount of light striking behind the Manzanita flowers,a wild flower that grows in our own backyard. I just discovered natural lights produces a stunning scene at different times of the day.
It’s challenging to get a good pictures of honeybees in flight.You can just imagine how small, movable,and aggressive they are! You cannot stop the motion of wings and the right movements is difficult to catch.It’s tricky!Previously,I’ve produced lots of errors and some blurry images.Others are good and worth to reward my effort.This is the result! More stunning pictures of bees in flight to some next post!
Brilliant light reflections of the sun rays directly to the bees.

When the morning sun rises in the east,You can view it in our own backyard. The sun’s rays spread out,creates brilliant-sparkling colors of pink,orange,blue,yellow and dark shadows pointing directly to the flowers.When the honeybees approach the flowers to pollinate,It helps bring bright and brilliant shadows. At closer range images,the morning sun passes through behind reflecting from above and the effect is quiet brilliant.You really cannot compare the beauty of the natural light.The sun shines beautifully in the morning. Even if the bees and the flower is too small but, looks stunning from the light above. It’s an opportunity providing me a dramatic and interesting images.I loved it!
Bees in flight are very difficult to photograph.I am a careful observer. I guess, because of daily shooting with the bees, They already get used to my presence and approachable. I’m just nearby in a closer distance to take close-up shots.I’m using different record modes to a specie which is difficult to photographed; foliage, low light, vivid colors, to mention some. To prove it to you, Got great number of images of the different movements and actions of bees while pollinating the flowers.I’m just experimenting and trying different tecniques using good subjects and the natural light of the day in a very distinctive way.What do you think? Is it a useful principle for an amateur photographer?
What a beautiful morning surprise! Large flock of birds continously chirping at my window this morning. I look out and saw the tree sparrows. Immediately, I went outside without delay with camera on hand. Because of excitement, I didn’t wait any longer to watch them. I keep still in one corner pausing quietly and moved closer to get a good view. I don’t see any available hides beside me but, I was able to photographed the birds before they disappeared in seconds.
The Tree sparrows, a very similar and most common species of bird.A greyish-brown in colour and feathers appeared to white,black and brown combination.They look stunning with the bright blue sky at the background. They all sat on an old branch of a Chico tree. They are active grooming exclusively in the morning.Though I hear sparrows chirping outside every morning, This is my first time to see them all together.A little bit close-up,You can see them sitting comfortably while grooming with more detail.What a great number!
I was even amazed to see them cleaning their feathers, spreading their wings, lifting to the right and left direction. Some hiding their heads and scratched all over. I guess, It’s a daily morning grooming. I have enjoyed watching them cleaning everything.
I love the higher pitch sound of the tree sparrows,but it’s just like music to my ear. Bird watching is really exciting!I don’t need to head off watching the birds in some areas. My own garden provides the natural environment for the birds to come.

I found birds to be an interesting subject but, challenging one.It’s really hard to photograph a bird; keeps on changing position and they don’t keep still. Perhaps, I need to learn about bird’s behavior in order to cope with it. My problem is how to get closer in order to get a sharp image.Lately,I’ve made lots of errors resulting to blurry and faded images. I’ve been practicing for a week now and, I hope I can improve it in the coming weeks to come. I want my photography result to be as good as these ”MIGRATORY BIRDS,’‘ and this one,”THE OWL,SILENT HUNTERS OF THE NIGHT.’‘
In our garden, the same kind of birds visiting everyday.Fruit trees in our backyard attracted different species of birds. I can only see four kinds that my own backyard provides,and probably the most common ones. It’s just as boring to see the same kind of birds. Do I really need to go on adventure to the forest to shoot all kinds? That would be exciting!
In here, If you check the image of my bird above, You don’t see any tail,I’ve missed it.That’s one error I’ve made.I’m not even ashame to show and publish my first bird image because I will learn from these. It’s correcting my mistakes in a way that benefitted my photography.I need a guidance to make a good image result.Tomorrow,I will buy a book about photographing birds. I think it will help. . I just hope you, photographers out there will share your smart tecnique in photographing the birds. Check any improvement in the coming days. I just hope I can make it!
