Snake’s-Head Fritillary Fritillaria meleagris is part of the lily family and Britain’s only native fritillary. At one time common throughout Britain, carpets of this flower, that once lined our rivers and adorned our wet meadows, have become a rare sight. Changes of land use and consequent loss of ancient flower rich meadows has contributed to a rapid decline in this species. Snake’s head fritillary is now classified as vulnerable on the Vascular Plant Red Data List for Great Britain.
Jeanie is a photograper with a passion for being outdoors capturing what
Mother Nature offers us. Her favourite genre is landscape photography and she is at her happiest in her wellies and waterproofs
on the coast or amongst the hills.
Jeanie does not do much by way of post-processing, preferring instead to wait patiently and capture the view in front of her,
in camera, with the assistance of neutal density filters. The fun for her is capturing the moment... and you may see her jumping
up and down like an excited child at Christmas when it all comes together and she gets the shot.
In 2018 Jeanie was delighted to be chosen as overall winner in the Landscape category of Scottish Landscape Photographer of the Year,
as well as also winning the Spring section of the Four Seasons category in the same competition.
