Description I haven't captured anything (for art's sake) in a very long time. I feel as if I still have that lack of creativity within me and so it has been difficult for me to motivate myself to upload anything.

I wanted to go for something simple, something natural, this time. Like Mysteries of the Universe , this has no post-processing done to it at all.

I think I shot this after I moved house. It was taken quite a long time ago, but I feel it fits as we leave Winter and enter Spring.

It's a bit off, composition wise, but I personally like it. For me, it shows that, without our intervention, things are wild and chaotic... as it should be, perhaps?


Post-Processing
None.

Yes, I agree! They're always moving.

It can be very difficult catching anything that moves, I think.

True, true.

I think you've raised a good point there.

Thanks a lot.

Thank you!

I think so! Normally they're not 'cute' as such... well, when they sting you.

Loriele [2011-05-23 05:26:30 +0000 UTC]

Wonderful shot! The depth of field is great and though I do agree the composition could be improved I think you really succeed in getting the naturalness to come through

THE POWER OF SPRING SHALL MOTIVATE YOUUUU!

I agree with the bit about your comment about wild and chaotic.
Nature is just like that, although sometimes it can be very calm.

Lol, one hopes it does.

Definitely! I'm glad you can see it that way.

This is lovely! I adore the focus on the bee (although I hate bees ) - it's so sharp and clear. The whole atmosphere is wonderful, and definitely feels Spring-like. The soft purple and green colours are so lovely, and the overall scene feels so peaceful and calm. It's great that there's no post-processing too, which seems to really add to the natural feel of this photograph.

Me too. They're not as bad as wasps, though.

I think so as well! Thank you so much.

It does get a bit tiring. =/

We haven't had any more snow, thank goodness, but plenty of rain!

It can be refreshing sometimes.

Jenniej92 In reply to 3wyl [2011-02-28 21:19:15 +0000 UTC]

yes, that's true, but driving in the rain while just gotten your drivers licence is a bit scary

no, i failed the test 2 times
but all that matters is that i got it now
and you? do you have your drivers licence?

3wyl In reply to Jenniej92 [2011-03-03 20:22:33 +0000 UTC]

Ouch.

I guess so!

I'd hate to fail, though, because it costs money and such. >.<

I'm planning on learning this year, after my exams.

Jenniej92 In reply to 3wyl [2011-03-04 08:46:24 +0000 UTC]

yeah, oh well
my dad did pay for it :3
and, the most important is that you get your licence while you feeling confident at your riding
i failed twice because of my own nervousness

oohh! lovely
driving is very fun ^^

3wyl In reply to Jenniej92 [2011-03-05 10:02:11 +0000 UTC]

Oh right, I see.

True, true...

Honestly, I think nearly everyone fails once. =/

I'm doing it for the skills.. I probably won't drive often, to be honest.

indeed...but i don't have my own car... i don't need it.
but i had 3 months vacation last summer, i thought that was a great moment to get my licence, because i'm now, as an university student, far too busy to get lessons

3wyl In reply to Jenniej92 [2011-03-07 20:32:31 +0000 UTC]

That's true... the insurance costs a lot anyway, no?

But don't you have a longer break as well in the Summer?

Jenniej92 In reply to 3wyl [2011-03-07 20:34:41 +0000 UTC]

yup indeed
and parking costs a lot too

yeah, but not as long as last year
universities don't have very long vacations in holland
