This photo was taken during the day at the Brother’s garden behind the Chapel. I chose to take a close photo of the flower to show the perspective that a bee or a bug would see, it shows that although when we see a flower it appears very small to us, but can be huge for the life of a bug.
I used this photo of the flower as well to show the different angles created by the petals of the flower. it shows the different elements that each of the petals portrays.
I decided to use this third picture of the flower to represent how the lighting is distributed and how it effects the overall view of the flower. The darkness on one side of the flower represents a softer, more pure angle of the flower, and the light at the bottom represents a new day, and how the sun is gradually moving over the flower.


I really enjoyed the first image of the set of three. I’ve never given any thought to how a bug sees a flower. Jen you’ve enlightened me. Now I’m curious to know what the view would be looking directly on top of the flower versus from side.
