And I'm a photographer. I'm interested in using a camera to help tell complex science stories.
我是个摄影师。我对用相机来讲述复杂的科学故事很感兴趣。
Taking images of things that are hard for us to perceive with our own eyes. . . allows you to become intimate with a subject. It freezes this moment and allows you to study and understand it in a way that other forms of media don't allow you to do.
拍摄肉眼难以察觉的事物的影像……让你和一个主题变得亲密。它定格了这个时刻，让你以一种其他媒体不允许的方式来学习和理解它。
The first photo that I took that sticks in my memory was this area called Stone Mountain near Atlanta Georgia where I grew up. I was with my friend.
在我的记忆中，我拍的第一张照片是乔治亚州亚特兰大市附近的石山地区，我就是在那里长大的。我和我的朋友在一起。
We had borrowed my dad's little digital camera. I came across a garter snake that was sitting in this patch of sun in the forest.
我们借了我爸的小数码相机。我在林子里遇到了一条吊带蛇，它就坐在这一片树林里晒着太阳。
And I was amazed how close I could get. I got within a foot of it.
我很惊讶我能离得这么近。我离它只有一英尺。
I took this picture of this snake just hanging out in the sun. I was proud of this picture.
我拍下了这条蛇在阳光下的照片。我为这张照片感到自豪。
But it was how excited my friend was about it. And it changed how he related to photography.

It was for me the best way to explore the natural world and share what I found. For close to 100 years National Geographic has been using photography to connect people from across the planet.
对我来说，这是探索自然世界和分享我的发现的最好方式。近100年来，《国家地理》一直在使用摄影将来自世界各地的人们联系起来。
My aim in all my photography is that I can show aspects of my subjects that people didn't know about before. A honey bee is something that is familiar to all of us.
我所有的摄影作品的目的是：我可以把我的拍摄对象的某些方面表现出来，而这些方面是人们以前不知道的。蜜蜂是我们大家都很熟悉的东西。
Through my photography people can see it in a new way and say "oh, here's this thing that I thought I knew. But here's something else that I know about it."
通过我的摄影，人们可以用一种新的方式来看待它，并说：“哦，这是我以为我知道的东西。”但现在我还知道一些别的事情。”
Seeing these details in the image, but you couldn't even see in your hand, you couldn't see under a microscope. That's what taught me how valuable photography can be.
在图像中看到这些细节，是你在手上、显微镜下无法看到的。这教会了我摄影的价值。
It extends your perception as a human. And I think that's fascinating.
它扩展了你作为一个人的感知。我认为这很有趣。
