JEB Cover

This is the cover of the October issue of the Journal for Evolutionary Biology, featuring my photo of a smooth newt. It accompanies an article about crest evolution in newts. This goes to show how valuable a tool photography can be to you if you’re a scientist. Not merely as a means of collecting data, but as a way to get your research on the cover.
Coincidentally, this is one of my photos on display in the Museum of Figurative Art. I wrote a post about how the photo came together previously. It’s one of my favorite images because it allows you a peak into the world of a newt from its own perspective. I’m continually amazed by the beauty that lies hidden in these small ponds, which seem nothing but dark and muddy from the surface. There’s a whole world in itself down there…
