When I was much younger, I would spend every moment I could play in the parks and (still) semi-wild places around my home in London. Nature was always my safe and exciting place becoming a very junior member of the RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds at around age 8. Having traveled much of the world and eventually settling in the pristine wilderness of Tasmania, I now gain inspiration and joy from the abundant beauty that is my home island. Photography has been part of my life for nearly 35 years, but it is only of late that botanical photography has become my passion. As you can imagine we in Australia and more so Tasmania have nature in abundance with every beach, mountain, forest, and desert being something to take your breath away. We are also surrounded by some of the last pristine ancient forests left on the planet and are habitat to many endangered species of mammals, insects, and my special love the vast world of botany!
