The following photos were taken within the past
month with my new Canon EOS 5D. Therefore the variety is limited
since most of the fauna are now gone - dead or hibernating. To see
a greater variety, more typical of what I do, please look at another web
page (click on Nature Photography 1 in the menu on my home page.
The photos on that page were taken with a Coolpix 990 at a maximum of 3.4
megapixels, probably not sufficient for publication purposes, but they
illustrate my interests and compositions. In a few weeks I hope to
have more Canon photos available.
My photos reflect my background in science and love of
composition. They show items of interest to someone looking to see
and understand many aspects of natural history, such as the distinguishing
structure of a species of flower, the sequence of blooming of individual
flowers on an inflorescence, and the splitting of a fruit to shed its seeds.
Even the whimsical sometimes presents itself as a subject, such as the
ghostly face of the "halloween persimmon".
