Phototropism means growth or movement in response to light. With a germinating seedling, for instance, the roots are negatively phototropic (as they move down through the soil away from the light) and the stem is positively phototropic (as it moves upward through the soil toward the light). Almost all of the photographs on this site were taken with natural light, and because playing with light is of paramount importance to photography and to me, this site is in many ways an outgrowth of my own appreciation of and aspiration toward light in its many guises.

I have recently added new photos to this site. The largest collection of new photos is in the What's New Gallery and has not yet been organized by subject. This will occur as they are incorporated into the site. A new gallery, Salt Point, can be reached through the link above or in the Northern California gallery, where it properly belongs. I have also added a page explaining About This Site, a Biography page that includes a little information about me, and another covering Technical Information about my photographic equipment and about the nuts-and-bolts of close-up photography.
