To the pleasure of any modern-day mudlark, it has turned out that the shorelines of the Thames make for a remarkable archaeological site. In recent years,
Early morning on the shores of Loch Lurgainn in Inverpolly, Wester Ross. I had stood at this same spot five days earlier, and was surprised to see just how much the vegetation had changed colour after a week of sunshine in the north-west. Already the bracken and deer grass were beginning to take on the tones of autumn. On this occasion the light wasn’t great – it stayed fairly hazy all day, in fact – but the soft light at least helped to reveal these tones to some extent. I’ve got high hopes for this location later in the year, when the autumn colours should be more pronounced. There was a nice breeze which at least had the virtue of keeping the midges away, but on the other hand it meant that careful timing was necessary in order to avoid too much blurring of the foreground.

AS FEATURED ON 'BBC RADIO 4 'GOOD READS'. Woodlands Awards 2019: Woodland Books of the Year'The oak is the wooden tie between heaven and earth. It is the lynch pin of the British landscape.' The oak is our most beloved and most common tree. It has roots that stretch back to all the old European cultures but Britain has more ancient oaks than all the other European countries put together. More than half the ancient oaks in the world are in Britain. Many of our ancestors - the Angles, the Saxons, the Norse - came to the British Isles in longships made of oak. For centuries the oak touched every part of a Briton's life - from cradle to coffin It was oak that made the 'wooden walls' of Nelson's navy, and the navy that allowed Britain to rule the world. Even in the digital Apple age, the real oak has resonance - the word speaks of fortitude, antiquity, pastoralism. The Glorious Life of the Oak explores our long relationship with this iconic tree; it considers the life-cycle of the oak, the flora and fauna that depend on the oak, the oak as medicine, food and drink, where Britain's mightiest oaks can be found, and it tells of oak stories from folklore, myth and legend.; 96 pages; Published: 18/10/2018
