While I was pulling frames from the beehives I felt compelled to stop for a minute and take a few photos. I removed about a hundred frames over the last two weekends. Most will be spun in the extractor to produce liquid honey but some will be cut into squares for comb honey and others will be cut and placed in pint size wide mouth jars and then filled with honey to produce what's called chunk honey. A little something for everyone who loves 100% pure natural honey.

On Sunday, we went to the Long Beach Aquarium. Their jellyfish displays are spectacular. It was difficult getting a shot due to both the low light and the ridiculous amount of people that were milling around.
The lights on the jellyfish turn on and off in such a way that it looks like the lights are running up and down their spines [? Don't know what else to call them!] It was an amazing display.
A cool comb jelly. The little multicolored comb thingies looked electrified and pulsated due to light refraction as it floated by.
Small kushi or comb, little kanzashi, my mom said, that it suits perfect to toffi dress or something in that colour ^^

Guess who made it: me or my 12 yrs old brother? :)
Most frames have a comb foundation inserted before the bees move in even though they can make their own. This is what natural comb looks like. Perhaps they were inspired by the arts.

Once the largest marshalling yard in Europe, Healey Mill goods yard is now possibly weeks away from closure. Much of the track has gone, and locomotives sit silently on rusting track, awaiting their last journey to the breakers at Rotherham.
Comb Jelly spreads out to dine- As this comb jelly drifts on the currents, it spreads two broad lobes out like nets to catch food, tiny prey sltick to the lobes, like flies to a spider's web. Then the food's swept by fine, little hairs toward the center to the comb jelly's waiting mouth.
Ornamental Comb
Predynastic, Late Naqada III, ca. 3200–3100 B.C., Egypt
Ivory
Finely carved ivory combs and knife handles produced toward the end of Egypt's prehistory demonstrate the high standards Egyptian artists had achieved, even before the Old Kingdom. This comb may have been part of the funeral equipment of an elite person who lived about 5,200 years ago. Parts of the comb's teeth, now missing, can be seen along the bottom edge. The detailed decoration suggests that it was a ceremonial object, not just an instrument for arranging the hair. On both sides are figures of animals in horizontal rows, a spatial organization familiar from later Egyptian art. The animals include elephants and snakes; wading birds and a giraffe; hyenas; cattle; and perhaps boars. Similar arrangements of these creatures on other carved ivory implements suggest that the arrangement and choice of animals were not haphazard. Elephants treading on snakes suggest that this part of the scene was symbolic. The mythologies of many African peoples associate elephants and serpents with the creation of the universe. The uppermost row of this comb may symbolize a creative deity to whom the rest of the animals owe their existence.
