Bee flight, artwork
Bee flight, computer artwork. Bees flap their wings in much shorter arcs than other flying animals. They swing their wings back 90 degrees (as opposed to a more usual 145 to 165 degrees) and then flip the wing over as it swings forward. This short stroke, the rotation of the wing and the rapid wing beat create vortices that produce lift

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bee Flight" showcases the intricate beauty of nature's aerial acrobats. Created by Claus Lunau, this computer artwork captures the essence of a bee in mid-flight. Unlike other flying animals, bees flap their wings in shorter arcs, making their flight patterns truly unique. In this stunning illustration, we witness the remarkable stroke of a bee's wing as it swings back 90 degrees and then flips forward. This short stroke combined with the rapid wing beat creates vortices that generate lift for these tiny creatures. The blue background adds a touch of serenity to the image, emphasizing the peacefulness and harmony found in nature. Lunau's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. From highlighting the precise rotation of each wing to capturing the physical forces at play during flight, he brings forth an appreciation for biology and zoology enthusiasts alike. As we delve into this mesmerizing depiction, we are reminded not only of bees' vital role as pollinators but also of their incredible adaptability and resilience within our ecosystem. This piece serves as a reminder that even small organisms can have profound impacts on our world. Let "Bee Flight" transport you into a realm where science meets artistry; where strokes create vortices and wings defy gravity. It is through images like these that we gain insight into both the biological wonders surrounding us and humanity's ability to capture them creatively without commercial intent
