Stag’s Horn Clubmoss Lycopodium clavatum represents an ancient plant group that separated from ferns and seed bearing plants more than 360 million years ago, and can be seen in the fossil record. It is common in Scotland and Wales and in the more mountainous regions such as the Lake District and the northern Pennines in England, amongst grasses, bilberry and heather.
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.
