Photographers use their lenses to record the most beautiful moments in the natural world. They can also use light, shadow, exposure, and angle to give an alternate view of reality, in the same way that an artist does when working in watercolors or oil paints. Those who doubt this should search insect photography prints for sale in the Harrisonburg VA area and see pictures that will convince them.
Insects are colorful, but they move fast and they're small. Many people never realize how beautiful a beetle can be until they see it in a photograph. Even familiar bugs like ladybugs, butterflies, and bees are astonishing when seen in the detail that can be captured by the camera. Less familiar bugs that lurk undetected in the grass or live in far-off rainforests are even more surprising.
Pictures straight from nature lend themselves to art photography with no alteration. A spider web pearled with dew and lit by the rising sun or a butterfly on a brilliant flower are beautiful moments that lose none of their appeal when caught on film. A beautiful creature like a Luna Moth, with its unique shape and delicate colors, is dramatic enough to make a statement in any room.
A gallery of art prints will quickly show that a tropical beetle with a carapace striped in red, yellow, and black may be unfamiliar but aesthetically pleasing. Although known to all, the pesky mosquito photographed against a white background is a symphony of graceful body, gossamer wings, and astonishingly long, delicate legs. A bee silhouetted against the light, drinking nectar from a flower through its slender proboscis, is an amazing sight.
Differing habitats lend beauty and drama to the picture. Plants are as varied in color, shape, and texture as the insects that live on them. The shape of the leaf or stem that a bug is resting on adds additional detail and dimension to the whole. If the photo captures raindrops or the play of sunlight and shadow, so much the better.
Digital cameras and developing processes have broadened the range of effects an art photographer can achieve. New paper and ink means that the photographs don't fade. In the online photo galleries, there are realistic photos, although the close-up detail of leaf or bark might fool the eye at first, and manipulated images that resemble silk screens or impressionist paintings.
Pictures used to decorate a home should evoke an emotional response from the viewer - and that is just what a great photograph does. Many people experience a sense of wonder when confronted with the intricacies of the natural world. The beauty and infinite variety of living things is something to celebrate, but it's fleeting. Immortalizing it on film is a great way to capture a moment in time and preserve it.
Prints of this nature are affordable, starting at about five dollars. They can also be an investment when limited edition artwork is chosen. Go online to see the impact such artwork can have.
