PacificPlankton

Naturalist, plankton enthusiast, human. Most plankton samples I stream are collected from near the tide station in San Francisco, CA - Station ID: 9414290. I am fascinated by the intersection of Science and Art. Photomicrography and plankton is what you will see here.

Who is Pacific Plankton?

On the edge of the Eastern Pacific Ocean, I venture into local marine plankton using my microscope, my camera, and my nature journal. I am interested in exploring the intersection of art and science. Seeking to understand the many microscopic marvels in the marine plankton. As a naturalist, nature journaling plankton has been a key part of my personal journey through the vast and mysterious world hidden beneath the waves.
