Blue Planet Photography - Art From Earth

I'm a professional photographer and this blog generally contains information about photography. But, since I also spent part of my life as a wildlife biologist, there will be some items about the environment as well. Maybe even some irritable ramblings.

New things we didn't know before

Here's another list of newly discovered animals, insects, physical properties, documents, and other things we thought we knew but now stand corrected.

The human species is an arrogant one. We think just because there are 6 billion of us crawling all over the surface of Earth that we've seen it all, that we've discovered everything, and that we know almost everything. We know a lot, seen a lot, discovered a lot relative to past history, but we don't have a clue what's coming next.
