100 Most Beautiful Photos of Honeybees

By livelifeandlove on May 21, 2012

My summer collection of honeybees.These honeybees keeps me busy during summer.Call it,”My summer love affair with the honeybees”. It’s not easy to snap these flying insects under an extreme setting, exposing my skin under the bright sun, however,it’s quiet easy to photograph something in our own backyard garden.

These photos will help you understand of what is being described in my previous post. Got a hundred images for now, But soon, I’ll upload more for my specific topics. With these great number of images, so worried that I will wake up one day and see no more bees around. I would be missing them.

To let them stay longer? Honeybees are truly attracted to a small white flower of Muntingia Calabura. I really need to take care of these trees in order for the bees to stay longer. Somehow, nature will do the rest. I was inspired to post it here as a reminder of the long summer vacation. It might be a great time pass and entertainment to view. Feel free to point the best one. Over a hundred photos of honeybees to view!

This is a typical kind of wild flower called, Aratiles or Muntingia Calabura and the favorite of the bees. A very small flower but, looks so beautiful and attractive.

Here in the Philippines, We call it Aratiles flower but,according to my research, it came out to be very different.The fruit looks almost the same with the aratiles fruit I’ve seen in the book but, the leaves looks different from the rest of sample pictures. I’m just curious about it!

OMG!!!

This man jumps off the top of Leaning Tower all the way down just to get his RM50.00 back, blown away by the wind. ( Knowing H e will survive the ordeal and might be thinking, He gets better after the impact. LOL! A little bit closer to the ground and, this man would be one dead man! Opppps! This is a photograph that would leave the readers laughing.

This is for entertainment purposes only. Do not try and use the moves at home.

To the Conservative Readers and the Grammatarians > I used the words commonly known as text-messaging words; OMG= Oh my God, and LOL– laugh out loud (abbreviation) a popular online chatting and text messaging for teenagers, for easy understanding, and quick to write that goes well with this comedy, thus, not to imitate because it will kill our language. I also used the words, ‘‘Yeap’‘, an alternative of Yup, means ”Yes is a fun slang for buddies. Also the ‘‘Nope” word, means No, is also a slang.

Beyond the Magnificent Sunset

By livelifeandlove on November 18, 2011

This sunset with a human element is amazingly gorgeous! It is a sort of opening welcome to my readers/viewers and to everyone who wants to escape the maddening crowd outside and and to calm after a hard day’s work. This sunset is stunning nature of beauty and peacefulness. The deeper it goes into the water, the brighter it shines. The scene’s flashes of rainbow colors and the reflections of those colors in the water make me feel the coolness of the scene and the briskness of the breeze. It provides benefits that will make you whisper about the goodness of life, as well as a perfect hideaway for you to think about the brighter side of life.

By livelifeandlove on September 24, 2011

Working with different assignments with or without time limits bringing with him all quality equipment readily available on the spot. Professional photographer and Director of Pixel Pro Photography Alex Chan has to tackle different situations and locations during the shooting. The only aim is to return home bringing with him astounding photographs using a camera that guarantee quality and reliable images, it is the kind of gear that delivers great image performance.

Perhaps, having a great name means a great deal of responsibility to share images, good news and events. He came up with shots worth publishing! This might be the reason inspired me to write about it. All photographs was majestic and impressive that I would like to share with you and the stories behind it.

Before and After HDR Images (Part 5 of 5)

By livelifeandlove on September 20, 2011

It’s time now to compare and contrast.Take a look at these before and after HDR (High dynamic range) photos, you can see the difference clearly. Spot the difference and evaluate the similarities between the two photos. What an effort to make it! HDR really gives life to images. For the photographer, ”What is important is, it was achieved and created efficiently and creatively. I agree, and you? How do you judge satisfactorily?

Note the differences between the two images. Do you notice the differences between the two? Definitely, the visual impact is impressive. It looks more attractive and better after. You can start creating your own now, however, if you fail, then, you’ll learn from your mistakes.

The V-Formation Of Birds

By livelifeandlove on August 31, 2011

The arrival of the egrets in from all parts of Central Asia leaving the winter months.During winter,Egrets escape the cold weather in temperate regions and drove them to a warmer place like Malaysia.They go back same way driven by natural instinct for survival.

THE ARRIVAL OF THE MIGRATORY BIRDS

Egrets in flight, flying forming the V-Formation. Egrets used V- formation when migrating. Amazing! I only live once to see this and I was very happy. I felt like, I was very close to nature to see the heavenly blue sky..…

Photographed by: Pixel Pro Photography, Malaysia

Why do Egrets fly in this kind of formation? So curious to see these birds cooperating with each other. I can still remember my high school days.All the best lessons I have learned from my science teacher and until this point. Using the V- Formation helps the Egrets to save energy. The V- shaped was created by the first bird, leader of the group itself to reduce resistance from the back row. When the leading bird gets tired, another bird takes over the lead. You can just imagine the long distance flight during migration. I don’t know how long They migrate. We will learn a lot from here.

Egrets – The Migratory Birds (Part 2)

By livelifeandlove on July 15, 2011

Photographed by: Pixel Pro Photography, Malaysia Part- 1 2

COVERAGE OF THE EGRETS

The trail and river cruise going to the Perak river of Teluk Intan, Malaysia. Pixelpro photographers following the logical route to shoot the egrets is the Part 2 version of the first article that was published earlier, ‘’Egrets- The Migratory Birds.’’ Both 2 articles took 4 days from conception to completion.

In here, You can see the professional photographers capturing the scenes and what happens along the way going there. I was amused to see the bird’s paradise. It is really a quiet and ideal place for them. For me, To write something about the birds is a very satisfying experience. To be honest, The reason why I want to get up things with professional photographers? It is because we share the same passion and values. Passions for ‘’Photography’’ and ‘’Our Love for the Animals.’’ I don’t want to miss every details of it. This is a combined ‘’Labor of Love’’ between the photographers and me. Photography is such a wonderful and memorable way to document the place or the subject itself.

I don’t want to encourage pro. Photographers to formulate questions about this because I’m not a photographer itself. Therefore I don’t know anyting about technical details about photography. Hence focusing only to the birds itself.

The Story of the Egrets (Part 1) is an inspirational tales of wildlife. I feel great to share not only my story but also the spectacular and timeless Pixelpro photos for my readers. These photos alone makes me want to visit Malaysia. Let’s get started. Snap and Enjoy!

The Sungai Peruk river of Teluk Intan, Malaysia.

It is a touch of wildlife.

The boatman was even more excited to be with the group.

Along the way to the Bird’s Paradise. At around 6:00 a.m. Pixelpro Photographers going there by boat.

Alex Chan, The director of Pixel Pro Photography with the peace sign. It seems, He feels comfortable wearing a life jacket.

Alen Chow

Aizat Rosli, waving his hand, He ‘s a friend of mine. He was among with the group who went there.

Taking photos of the location. I was energized by the views itself. River cruise is not only an exciting way to travel but a good sights you can see along the way.

This is the destination. The Bird Island is a paradise home for the egrets. Full view of the Egrets home. The egrets looks like a small white paper torn over the mangroves. It looks like a paper airplane. The mangroves is a transit area to feed and rest for the night.

Powershot Moments. As you can see the photographers are always ready and their camera within reach to shoot anytime. This activity is a far long shooting session. I think the light conditions of the day is good.

I think, They will really create images worth talking about and it was true.

The shooting begins..

Alex Chan and company. What a relaxing way to capture the birds! This is the right place and time.

Beautiful setting. Impressive number of birds flying aimlessly.

The large dispersal flocks travelling along the way. This proves that Egrets are Migratory Shorebirds.

Taking and capturing pictures like this is a witness to the wonderful site.

It is a pro. series.

I feel good. This photo will definitely adds life.

Aizat’s way of capturing egrets movement in flight. Let us see his different movements and techniques. We will all learn from him.

What a pro! What is important is, He feels comfortable with this position. All images came out to be very fantastic.

Aizat’s smart shots and it’s worth talking about . How I wish to do this.

What makes a place unique? To see the flying birds encircling around makes it unique.

At sunset, Each one flies to its own specific tree to sleep. Amazing! Great numbers of egrets. Just like, I was hypnotized by this scene.

6:30 p.m. here. The photographers waited until their lovable creatures gets to sleep.

Night skies, Dose of refreshing night breezes that blow along the river. The long day shooting ended

The egrets sleeps but, the story will not end up here…I just hope the survival of these species will continue to multiply through the ages. They are very much an integral part of our ecosystem.

I really appreciate you guys for sharing your photos with me and that makes your efforts worthwhile. I’m looking forward to the next version of the Migratory Birds Part 3 soon. I hope guys we will continue raising conservation and awareness to save the Wild birds. Thank you very much Alex Chan , Aizat Rosli and other Pixel Pro Photography club members.
