Project

     Research: My biggest inspiration was Mark Dion. His work was absolutely amazing and my whole idea of the bees project hit me whenever he said that "ecology is a balance in life."

     Intent:  My intent in this project was to show what bees meant in the world. Bees basacally keep a balance in life. Without bees, we would not have pollunitation, and without pollination, we would have plants. Without those plants, there will be no animals, and then, no us. Bees are one of the most basic structures in life itself, but make such a big impact. Instead of pin pointing all of the bad in ecology like most people like to do, I decided to look at the good and what helps our world.

     Reflection: I think that my project went really well. I was a little upset that I did not particularly get to take the best photographs because the face mask disabled me to look through the lense, but I did the best I could do with the little I had. Also, I wish that I could have gotten alot closer up onto the bees to see the really detailed parts about them like the yellow pollen on their legs, and the little larva eggs in the nest. I just did not have that kind of camera, but I will know that next time when photographing such small organisms. All together, I think that my project was a sucess. I  may have alot of the same images, but I didnt mind it because bees are a pretty interesting subject area.
