In the shadow of trees.

Silver Beech (Petula bendula) is an able pioneer that was one of the first trees to colonize the newly exposed earth up here in Scandinavia some 12000 years ago when the last Ice age thawed. 💛 #ColorADay #YellowThu #trees #nature #photography #EastCoastKin

Wow, this book is incredible. It Lasts Forever and Then It's Over by @annedemarcken.com. I've never read anything like it. Beckett?! Now listening to @davidnaimon.bsky.social's conversation with Anne. I don't want it to end. tinhouse.com/podcast/anne...

Artists often struggle to represent trees accurately in their work. Fortunately, Leonardo da Vinci showed us how to represent trees. See what he taught us at Our Trees.

From @katieholten.bsky.social, "The Language of Trees" "Trees invite us into the entangled lives, loves & freedom struggles of those who came before us & those who will come after us. I learned things about trees & people that made me laugh, cry & gasp in wonder. I wish everyone could read it."

My book THE LOST RAINFORESTS OF BRITAIN was published 3 years ago. Since then, it's sold nearly 100,000 copies. More importantly, it's been so wonderful to see the momentum behind the movement to restore Britain's temperate rainforests gather pace - with many more victories yet to come, I hope.

Looking up through the tree canopies, autumn light filters through the leaves. The Japanese word komorebi describes sunlight seen through leaves — the shifting radiance where earth meets sky in gold and flame. #Autumn #Trees
