Middleton studied portraiture with influential fashion photographer \u003ca title=\"Richard Avedon - About\" href=\"http://www.avedonfoundation.org/about/\">Richard Avedon\u003c/a>, who used the same techniques for his \u003ci>Vogue\u003c/i> covers as Middleton now uses for her nature images. “I know what works for advertising,” she said. “Animals can use all the help they can get in the public relations department.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cb>Some cousins are harder to love\u003c/b>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Animal life is divided into over thirty distinct groups; the majority of these are worm-shaped. There are flatworms and roundworms, ribbon worms and acorn worms, peanut worms, jaw worms, arrow worms—not to mention earthworms and leeches. The variety is astounding, but even Middleton said, “It took me a while to understand and appreciate the worms.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like many children, the young Middleton felt a “visceral fear” of worms. It wasn’t until well into her work on \u003ci>Spineless\u003c/i> that her attitude was altered by some worm-loving scientists—and the worms themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The worms that build the tubes were the real thing that won me over,” Middleton said, referring to a group called \u003ca title=\"Real Monstrosities - Ice Cream Cone Worms\" href=\"http://www.realmonstrosities.com/2013/10/ice-cream-cone-worm.html\">ice cream cone worms\u003c/a>, which carefully glue individual grains of sand into mosaic, cone-shaped houses. “They’re like little artisans. They’re very picky about the sand grains they collect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of a different type of tube worm, frilly with tentacles and spangled with iridescence, Middleton just said: “Better than anything Pixar could invent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even worms without bright colors or remarkable tubes can hide surprising beauty. One day the invertebrate biologist \u003ca title=\"Gustav Paulay - UFL\" href=\"http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/malacology/paulay.htm\">Gustav Paulay\u003c/a> offered Middleton a bland-looking brown flatworm to photograph. He was excited to have found the rare species, but Middleton was nonplussed. Nevertheless, she brought it back to her studio. Before her lens the worm became a contortionist, exhibiting routines that would be the envy of any professional gymnast. Neither Paulay nor his students had ever seen such behavior.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cb>Meeting Our Family One By One\u003c/b>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_25088\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 350px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/science/wp-content/uploads/sites/35/2014/12/Spineless_p6-7-1024x682.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-25088\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/science/wp-content/uploads/sites/35/2014/12/Spineless_p6-7-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"beautiful sea slug\" width=\"350\" height=\"233\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The name “opalescent nudibranch” certainly suits this stunner sea slug.
