Gwydyr Forest, Snowdonia National Park. Wales holds forty percent of the British total of Maritime oak woodland. Atlantic weather systems provide high rainfall and varied geology provides rich soils. Some of these mature woods have remained undisturbed for centuries, with well developed understoreys of natural regeneration, veteran trees and ample deadwood.
Landscape photography is my focus (sic) since retiring from a university career researching and teaching plant and environmental science. Photography combines my lifelong love of Britain's wild places with an understanding (I hope!) of how our diverse environments work and the processes within them, as well as the way light falls on them. Seeing - really seeing - what is around us is hard, and the challenge for me is to find formalist images whose structure and atmosphere are consonant with the nature of the subject.
