The Other 95% A site all about invertebrate life started by Kevin Zelnio which I am a co-author of now.

Hmmm... who am I?
Well I really don't know the answer to that and as ~~I am accellerating towards~~ I've cleared 40, well, check back when I'm 50.

What I do though - I am a ~~(old) undergrad student in Marine Sciences (Physics and Biology focuses)~~ graduate student at the University of Connecticut Avery Point campus persuing an MSc in Oceanography.

Unfortunately all the school and research projects leave little enough time for my family, so my photography time suffers severely. Now that I'm ~~Soon enough I will be~~ through with my undergrad and on to the masters program ~~then~~ I ~~will~~ have even less time!!

In photography I enjoy wildlife photography and the birds around here are a joy to study through the lens. Macro is second on the list, and of course family snapshots are a must.

Please enjoy the photos, and be sure to leave a comment or question.

"I am his son, and he looks at nature but at a close angle. We went on photography hunts and I remember him saying LOOK!! there is an Osprey by the time I got there he was real close I couldn't get a photo but daddy got a photo and we went to a telephone poll and there was the osprey with his fish he got some pictures and we went home it was fun.

"A man of many talents, Eric, offers Flickr world a delightful stream of photographs. Nature, especially, birds are shown with expertise and concern in equal measures. Wonderful education for all of us.

But it is not just techniques and knowledge of the subject that are the highlights. It is his genial personality overflowing with concern for the world around us that is the hallmark of his stream. Keep shooting, Eric."
