I had the rare opportunity to get out for a walk on my own (usually I’m taking care of my two girls) so I headed to some nearby woodland with my camera for some thinking space.

I really enjoyed myself – being alone and able to hear nothing but birdsong as I walked among the trees. Many of them were covered in moss and ferns and twisted into interesting shapes due to the high level of rain this area experiences.

Some of the trees I encountered were covered in thick layers of moss

The moss created an interesting texture on an already interesting tree
