You remembered to do your specular lighting, and most of your shading, that's better than I can say for allot of people... and really all your clouds need is some time spent studying them (outside, watching sunsets) and then applying your knowledge of how to do specular lighting and shading to them
keep up the awesome work .

Miramichi, Canada, you want the exact address too? I'm fine with giving it out; I'll be moving soon, so all you'll have to kill is whoever else moves here .

Maybe to you, and for anywhere from 1/4-1/2 of the year it is winter here (below 0°C), but during the summer, temperatures can reach 35°C-40°C; It's rather extreme, now that I think of it.

yeah... I hate winter, but the bright side of all that change is this: relatively little bugs.

never really had too many problems with bees, hornets will try to chase you away from your food if you're outside, so I like to bring a bug zapper with me, to give them a good scare, but some of the bees here won't even sting you if you accidentally step on them, and I know a few people capable of moving a hornets nest without getting stung, while wearing no protective equipment.

I find that bees don't bother you if you just don't panic, and remain calm, I sorta harbor a silent respect for them... maybe they can feel that and so realise I'm just being clumsy if I step on them, I unno, but I haven't been stung once in a good 15 years by a bee, ever since I accidentally disturbed a nest as a child playing that sport you play with a ball and your feet, and had one of the guard bees sting me.
if you get too close to a nest and they don't want you around, they'll typically give you some warning taps from the side there nest is on, to try and drive you to go the other way, and some more agressive species of bees will begin to sting if you run... if you ever get teh warning taps just turn away from them and walk straight, or alternately turn around and go the way you came, but stay calm, they don't really want to hurt you any more than you should want to hurt them.
I actually garnered allot of respect for bees after reading up about them and discovering some interesting and true stories about them, like this one man who'd charge them a jar of honey every year... it's unfortunate I can't find that one any more, it was really interesting:
he had a colony that started up in the corner of his room, inside his house, they were well aware of this mans presence, but despite that fact they continued to expand their hive into his room and leave him alone, and he left them alone for a time. it was featured on our local news, so I'd Imagine these were north American honey bees, not those Africanized bees, which can't survive our colder climate (thankfully), anyways, one day he placed a glass jar, right side up, on a chair in his room and left it there. The bees filled it with honey over the course of half the summer, not capping it when it was full, just leaving it there, so he took it, put the cover on the jar, and placed another one out just to see if they would do it again, by the time the story aired he had been doing it for five years, the years following the first he only took one jar, as that was more than enough for himself, and as far as I know that's the way it stayed until the old man died from natural causes... after which the bees had to be removed so that the house could be resold, which saddened me, but the contractors insisted that the bees wouldn't adapt to new humans living with them... and it creeped people out XD. it was only lightly covered, like the news people found it uninteresting and that's probably why I can't find it anywhere online; it was local news, but I remember being just engrossed in it when it aired. and following it for a couple of years when there were the few and far between updates.

it should be noted that this was not something bee experts could consider entirely normal, most attempts to use a bottle for this purpose by actual bee keepers have led almost exclusively to them building more of their hive inside the bottle, which may be the result of them placing the bottles upside down, and it is very rare that a hive, especially other species of bees than our relatively docile but highly coordinated honey bee, will let a human that close to their hive without trying to drive them off.
as I recall, the man had a flower garden he tended to, which may have slightly influenced the bees behavior into maybe treating him as a huge member of the hive... it's not something that was well documented, or really explored, we know how to send communication to them, and how they communicate, and that they will even hold meetings to decide on weather or not a new spot is good for moving their hive to, but we cannot pretend to know everything about how they view other creatures.
