My New Project!

This week I started my latest project. I have been funded by E.U. to work with a Cornish beekeeper named Rodger Dewhurst for 5 weeks. Within that 5 weeks I will be helping him (and learning alot about his job) but also, and brilliantly, getting to photograph his bees, and products. His bees display Varroa Sensitive Hygeine (pretty much they will find Varroa in the hive, or in capped cells, and destroy them!). This has been seen but there is not much footage of this behaviour, and I aim to photograph and film this more throroughly.

So, I will be(e) keeping a diary of events of my project, including lots of photography surrounding this one company and fascinating subject- Hope you enjoy!
