Publication in Biology Textbook What is Life















My flower portrait photography image Pink Orchid from my floral photo gallery was selected for inclusion in the biology textbook "What is Life? A Guide to Biology with Physiology", authored by Jay Phelan. The second edition of this scientific textbook was just released by publishing company W.H. Freeman. My floral photography picture was used in section 18 that discusses Growth and Reproduction in Plants.

I received a copy of the publication and it is an amazing biology textbook that covers all general topics of core biology. The book is very informative, easy to understand and much fun to read. It will be a great asset for refreshing my memory of biology and a perfect resource for some of my nature photography projects.
