A big part of my life, especially in California, has been developing an interest in the natural world.

Photos

I take some (mostly) crummy pictures, mainly of birds, but want to get more into general macro photography. I shoot on a Nikon D610 with a NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6 lens. I’m on Instagram, where I post photos occasionally.
