"[UV, bee vision] one step beyond photography...Bidens"

Well, I thought it would be about time to go one step beyond still photography and show videos now!

...click links to see the videos in 1280x720 resolution and 16-9 format...

Bidens ferulifolia Bee Vision using XBV2 filter

I have not seen videos of flowers in ultraviolet (UV) before,  but the second video clearly shows that prominent UV pattern Bidens exhibits.  This is actually a simulation of the vision a bee might have since it maps the UV channel into the visible one, so the second video is UV+B+G+G

Cheers, Klaus
