I''ve started work on a book of photographs of ''tree spirits'' with poetry
I have a great collection of photographs of 'tree spirits' revealed in the form, texture and colour of trees. I'll include one of my favourites to show you what they're like, and another illustrates my poem "Ode to Pan". A few others are on my Zaadz site, at the URL below.
I've shown selections of these photos to lots of people (including an audience of 200) with very strong response. Some have said they'll never see a tree the same again. Many others encouraged me to make a book.
So I've begun work on a book of photos with complementary, evocative prose and poetry. My poem "Ode to Pan" is the first piece for this.
I've just sent a proposal to organisations in the UK that conserve and regenerate woodlands offering the photos and book in support of their work. O Books, who published "The Science of Oneness" have expressed some interest in publication.
A book of nature inspired poems and essays, written from the heart and soul of a life-long nature, animal, and wilderness lover, and dedicated to today’s children - Earth's only hope for a better tomorrow.
This book won 'The Poetry Category'
