My Bugs Obsession

Tiny worlds, BIG stories. This gallery looks close — really close — at the scales, hairs, and compound eyes of some of the primary operators of our ecosystems. Each frame is shot in the field with macro lenses and a combination of natural light, onboard flash, and sometimes a clean sheet of white acrylic. Bugs might be speaking to us in shape, texture, and behaviors we rarely pause to consider. Here's my way of celebrating the chattering engineers of our planet. I'm inviting you to look twice before you swipe past these small neighbors of ours.
