Los coleópteros (Coleoptera) (del griego κολεός koleos: "caja o estuche", πτερον pteron: "ala") son un orden de insectos con unas 375.000 especies descritas; tiene tantas especies como las plantas vasculares o los hongos y 66 veces más especies que los mamíferos.1 Contiene más especies que cualquier otro orden en todo el reino animal, seguido por los lepidópteros (mariposas y polillas), himenópteros (abejas, avispas y hormigas) y dípteros (moscas, mosquitos).
El nombre vulgar de escarabajos se usa como sinónimo de coleópteros,2 pero muchos tienen nombres comunes propios, como gorgojos, carcomas, barrenillos, mariquitas, sanjuaneros, aceiteros, cucarrones (en Colombia), ciervos voladores, luciérnagas, congorochos (en Venezuela), caculos (en Puerto Rico), etc.
Los coleópteros presentan una enorme diversidad morfológica y ocupan virtualmente cualquier hábitat, incluidos los de agua dulce, aunque su presencia en ambientes marinos es mínima. La mayoría de los coleópteros son fitófagos, y muchas especies pueden constituir plagas de los cultivos, siendo las larvas las que causan la mayor parte de los daños agrícolas y forestales.
Los coleópteros tiene las piezas bucales de tipo masticador, y las alas delanteras (primer par de alas) transformadas en duros escudos, llamados élitros, que forman una armadura que protege la parte posterior del tórax, incluido el segundo par de alas, y el abdomen. Los élitros no se usan para el vuelo, pero deben (en la mayoría de las especies) ser levantadas para poder usar las alas traseras. Cuando se posan, las alas traseras se guardan debajo de los élitros. La mayoría de los coleópteros pueden volar, pero pocos alcanzan la destreza de otros grupos, como por ejemplo las moscas, y muchas especies vuelan solo si es imprescindible. Algunos tienen los élitros soldados y las alas posteriores atrofiadas, lo que les inhabilita para volar.
En la historia de las religiones y mitologías le ha cabido al escarabajo (particularmente al llamado comúnmente "escarabajo pelotero") un lugar destacado: los antiguos egipcios le consideraban un símbolo de resurrección y vida eterna: Jepri.
Suponían que ese escarabajo (al que llamaban Ḫpr, o Jeper) 'resucitaba' de la 'pelota' de estiércol que hacía; lo cierto es que el escarabajo pelotero deposita sus huevos en esa pelota y allí nacen. Por este motivo los antiguos egipcios ubicaban sobre el corazón de las momias una imagen de Jepri, el escarabeo.
Cuando el cristianismo se difundió en el Valle del Nilo, la cristiandad copta realizó interesantes asimilaciones sincréticas de la religión precedente y, así como adoptó el "anj" (ankh, o cruz ansada), también adoptó -como alegoría- a 'Jepri', asimilándolo metafóricamente a Jesucristo, al que llamaban "El Buen Escarabajo". Es por esto que en algún texto medieval se puede encontrar la expresión "bonus scarabaeus" en alusión a Cristo.

week 12
I ran out of time again this week, we have a lot going on in the background so I apologise for the lazy image. Yes I know its rubbish but it is what it is.
Process :found a rotted leaf, threw it on our skanky outdoor table, chucked up a portable flash and metered to f8, used the gary fong only to reduce spill as i was a touch slack. (if i had thought about it I would have made the shadow more of a feature by making it longer) then on the same sd card took photos of the worn 60s painted red concrete, a limestone block, a dirty window (and there are many) and a fly screen. blended in ps in multiple modes, opacities and the screen had levels boosted.

Hear the loud alarum bells
Brazen bells
What a tale of terror now
Their turbulency tells
Much too horrified to speak
Oh, they can only shriek
For all the ears to know
How the danger ebbs and flows
Leaping higher, higher, higher
With a desperate desire
In a clamorous appealing to the mercy of the fire
With the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells
With the clamor and the clanging of the bells

He's looking pretty smug here, being a genius and all that, but little did he suspect I was about to pull the old "brief glimpse of nipple" trick. Distracted, he lost his Queen, and it was all down-hill from there. In a fit of pique he flung the queen through his latest sculpture, breaking the glass. It was to be named "Pyramid" (a rather unimaginative name, I thought), but now he changed the title to "To be Looked at (from the Other Side of the Glass) with One Eye, Close to, for Almost An Hour" .
