As you may know, Photo Synthesis is a rotating blog, featuring the work of a different photoblogger each month.
The powers that be here at ScienceBlogs tell me they are still considering candidates for the coming month and for following months. So. If you have a favorite science photographer who blogs, or blogger who photographs, send your suggestion to editorial@scienceblogs.com. Or, just post a comment below.
Don't be shy about recommending yourself, either, if you fit the high profile of a Photo Synthesis blogger. Generally, aside from the obvious bit about photography, we here at Photo Synthesis tend to be internationally celebrated, devilishly attractive, charming at parties, proficient at PCR, skilled in fighting street crime, and good with cats.

B.N. (Bobbie) Sullivan has a strong affinity for the sea and everything in it. She first learned to dive in 1970 and has since logged thousands of dives. A wish to document the marine life she encountered prompted her to learn underwater photography more than 20 years ago. More recently, she began to write about the marine life she has photographed. A research psychologist by profession, she approaches her subject matter with the mindset of a scientist, but targets her writing to a general readership in whom she hopes to foster an appreciation for the ocean and its inhabitants.

One sort of expects it in soap ads and such, but in a so-called science blog, to see chimpanzees referred to as monkeys is disheartening.
Unlike monkeys, chimpanzees have no tails. Just like us, chimpanzees are APES.

I have no problem calling chimps monkeys. Or humans monkeys, for that matter.
Monkeys become paraphyletic if we remove apes from the group. And trust me. No one wants paraphyly.

I nominate entomologist Ted MacRae of Beetles in the Bush (http://beetlesinthebush.wordpress.com/).He is moving up to DSLR equipment soon so he can relate his experiences with the new equipment, besides giving the straight poop on the bugs he blogs about.
