About me:
I've started posting most photos on my flikr account: http://www.myspace.com/michaelduchekspicts I mostly set this up to show off my pictures, show check them out. Real name Michael Duchek, alias Weatherwax, alias Spot, alias Blue Belly, alias "person or persons unknown". I live in San Diego, and work for the county dept of agriculture. I trap nurseries for an insect called the glassy-winged sharpshooter, (Homalodisca coagulata). It's not as glamorous as it sounds, but at least I get to spend most of my days outdoors. I'm a San Diego native who just returned after 10 years in northern California, going to Humboldt State, where I majored in wildlife management and minored in forestry. No, I don't smoke pot. My main hobby is nature photography. I'm still too poor for a good digital camera, so I use an old Nikon FM-2. I'm also kind of a history buff, and do Civil War re-enacting. I belong to G Co of the 6th US Infantry, a unit stationed here in San Diego until the outbreak of war. Back when San Diego was a backwater of 750 people. I like to travel, but I'm sick of airline security. I'd really like to visit Ireland and Scotland. But so far have only been to northern England (Yorkshire). I'm an athiest, but I don't tend to make fun of other peoples religious beliefs...unless they're scientologists, or ralians, or ramthans.
Who I'd like to meet:
An intelligent woman with a good personality, and who doesn't take crap from anyone...especially me.

I made my first video slideshow and wanted to share it with you. The musician (Elizabeth Ann Middleton) is one I found through MySpace, and she generously let me use her music to set to my images. Visit her MySpace page here - http://www.myspace.com/pianorama - she's fantastic! :-)

Spring is here and so are the butterflies! This week I have a gallery of a particular group of butterflies called Brushfoots. Brushfoots are the most commonly known and encountered of the large colorful butterflies (excluding the swallowtails) found in Florida and the Americas. These include the monarchs, fritillaries, buckeyes, and the viceroy below (who has nearly identical markings as the toxic monarch butterfly) to keep it from being eaten by birds.... cool trick, huh? :-)

Click the butterfly below to see my gallery - and please let me know what you think!



Thanks for looking!
