Google Tech Talks May, 8 2008 ABSTRACT Big animals - if we learn to love them and understand their survival - we will do everything to protect them. Professional marine and wildlife photographer Amos Nachoum will show his photos of large animals from around the world, talk about the process of taking these photos, show the equipment he uses, and describe why we should care about and protect these animals. Check out a preview of some of his stunning wildlife photos: http://www.corp.google.com/~sethml/amos.- nachoum/index.html This talk will be taped. Speaker: Amos Nachoum Professional Marine and Wildlife Photographer Amos Nachoum has led National Geographic expedition teams with Dr. Eugenie Clark, Dr. Sylvia Earle, astronaut Buzz Aldrin, and has co-produced documentaries with Stan Waterman. He was the team leader for National Geographic's Red Sea, Great White Shark, and November '96 Killer Whale photo expeditions. Mr. Nachoum's photos and essays have appeared in more than 500 publications in North America, Europe, and Japan, including National Geographic magazine, Ocean Realm, Island, Outside, Rodale's Scuba Diving, Time, Life, The New York Times, Condé Nast Traveler, Le Figaro, Terra Sauvage, Airone, and Mondo Somerso. Amos Nachoum - photographerIn addition, his work has been included in the books The Living Ocean, Oceans, and The World of Nature. He has been profiled in television appearances on National Geographic Explorer (Sept. '97), the Today Show, and Good Morning America, as well as in People, Esquire, and Money magazines. In 1988 he won Nikon's underwater photography contest and in 1993, the Communication Arts Award. He is currently an instructor on the Nikonos team of professional photographers and also conducts his own SLR and advanced u/w photo seminars. After spending three years circumnavigating the globe, Amos co-founded Israel's Marine National Park on the Red Sea. In 1978 he established La Mer Diving Seafari Inc, a New York-based adventure-travel company that brought North American divers to some of the most pristine and exotic underwater locations on the planet, from the Galapagos Islands to the Maldives, from Papua New Guinea to Madagascar and the Red Sea. In the course of directing these operations he has become an expert at working in partnership with foreign governments and companies to bring divers to some of the most beautiful and little-visited parts of the underwater realm, with preservation of the environment's integrity foremost in every encounter. Amos Nachoum - photographerSince 1992, Amos's efforts have been focused on professional commercial and editorial photography for such clients as the Israeli office of tourism, Saba Island, the governments of Australia, New Zealand, and Brazil, and large private clients ranging from Apple, IBM, and Microsoft to The Discovery Channel, Armani, the Walt Disney corporation, and Colombia Pictures. Arising from the belief that private individuals should have access to the same sights as governments and large corporations, Amos has developed the cutting-edge adventure-travel program Big Animals Photography Expeditions specifically to provide opportunities to observe, photograph, and interact with the most imposing inhabitants of the sea, such as great white sharks, killer whales, sperm and humpback whales, dolphins, and more. Only through such observation and interaction, Amos Nachoum believes, can people learn to truly understand and respect some of the most impressive citizens of our water planet.

I received a comment from a fellow photographer (Jim, from Transient Light Photography) a few days ago telling me of a free contest that he is putting on. I took a look at his contest rules and the reason for this contest, and had to laugh at his comment about little boys not being sissy's... I was inspired to post my own lizard pictures today. These poor little creatures! They are quite plentiful here around our yard, and I have a ten year old little boy who is enthralled with them, and capt

Magicians and Pickpockets
This article at Scientific American on how magicians and pickpockets trick your brain mentioned a couple of videos. Before you read the article, if you haven’t seen the video where you are supposed to count the number of times a basketball is passed between people wearing white shirts I wrote about it in this post. I’m pretty sure I’ve linked to another one of the videos they mention before but it’s worth re-posting below. It’s interesting in the article when they point out simply moving yo

Oh dear, I’ve been on the road again…off to see grandbaby and her parents. Well, actually to help them move from an apartment to a nice town home. My part was to take care of my 10-month old baby, which I did by toting her around in a backpack all day. We had the greatest fun. She slept on my back thr
Hot, Hot, Hot…………!!!!
My vegetable garden is doing well, after the fire (see previous post). These 6 tiny little cucumber plants, have expanded to almost the full 40 foot width of the garden plot! The bird house gourd plants are even more immense, and are producing rapidly. I will have to get a trellis out there for them to climb! After the late night berry picking the other night, I was tempted to go check on the vegetable garden, but didn’t. Yesterday, mid day, I went to the garden, and was horrified to see the
