Botanical

  • The crown of a small tree in new leaf, thin branches spreading across a deep blue sky
  • An orange pincushion protea in bloom, its styles curving out in every direction above grey-green leaves
  • Upright silver-green conebush stems packed with narrow leaves, shot from below against a cloudless blue sky
  • Two Egyptian geese with heads down, feeding on a sandy path at the edge of a lawn
  • Two courses of weathered sandstone in a dry wall, the blocks cracked and streaked with yellow lichen
  • A flight of rough stone steps climbing through a planted garden bed towards trees on a hillside
  • An aloe rosette in full sun, thick toothed leaves fanning out over a brick edge against dark strappy foliage
  • Scarlet tubular flowers hanging in dense spikes, several stems in focus against a soft green background
  • Two orange gazania flowers with dark rings at their centres, one sharp in the foreground and one soft behind
  • A bank of white agapanthus in flower above a rough stone retaining wall, dark shrubs behind
  • Close-up of red and green conebush tips, the bracts flaring open like small flames, more of them blurred behind

Environment

  • Looking straight up a square concrete lightwell, every tier overgrown with ferns and vines, a bird crossing the patch of blue sky at the top
  • An abandoned vaulted corridor frozen over, icicles hanging from the windows and a lone wheelchair reflected in the ice underfoot
  • A ruined tiled courtyard open to a stormy sea, its mosaic floor cracked and flooded with a rockpool, a fishing boat on the horizon
  • A derelict ballroom carpeted in glowing turquoise mushrooms, bats roosting on the ceiling rose above tarnished mirrors
