Biography:

Recent interest in Bee's and other insects follows of my slightly less recent interest in photography. I am using a Canon XTi to take my pictures. My best macro lens is a 90mm Tamron.

If visit my Flickr page you will see that I started out doing mostly abstract geometric digital art and pictures of my dogs. Then one day I picked up a macro lens, and the rest is history.

[October/November]
I live in the SF Bay Area and have just switched from a pretty good cable connection provided by a rude, greedy, and arrogant cable company to a free wireless connection that is sometimes aggravating but most of the times works very well, and is free!

Do you look at EXIF info of other photos sometimes? I do too! Note, however, if you see 50mm, or F/1.8 in the EXIF of any of my photos, it probably means the lens is a manual focus lens that did not originally have AFC chips and so that information will not be correct.

-Caution! I am NOT an authority on insects, I just find them interesting and wonderful models.
-Editors: I hesitate to move my pages out of ID request, but don't mind moving them. Just say move to such and such page.
