I'm Phil, and I'm a photo rookie. I hadn't touched a proper camera since darkroom class in high school, so I don't claim to be either artistically talented nor technically proficient, but we'll how things go.

All of the images here can also be viewed in their full resolution glory on my flickr page.
By day, I have the the fortune to get to play with awesome robots and other toys as a Ph.D. student in Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University. Here's my official grad student web page.
This site is powered by the great photoblogging software Pixelpost and proudly hosted at Joyent, the best webhosting company, like, evar.
