Woodland and forests are my favourite place to escape to, nothing beats sitting under a tarp in woods while a fire smoulders. Surrounded by birdsong, green foliage, waiting for the sun to dip below the canopies for those few magical minutes of golden sunlight.
An early morning to catch a spectacular spring sunrise at Lunt Meadows - an amazing nature reserve on the outskirts of Liverpool that is filled with wildlife anytime of the year.
This nature reserve has only been in existence for a few years, previously it was agricultural farmland, but since 2014 it has been transformed into a stunning wetlands habitat similar to the environment that existed here before the land was ever farmed. There is in fact a Mesolithic archaeology site showing evidence of the people who lived here thousands of years ago.
Living within sight of the coast opens up opportunities for huge skies, expansive beaches, dunes, birds, and an ever changing dynamic landscape.
While I love the quietness of a forest, the drama of a moody sky and crashing waves is also alluring and these are places I often seek out.
The constant cycle of tides expose new opportunities to feed and create dynamic, hostile environments offering refuge to all except those who can access them.
From vast sandy beaches to rocky cliffs, the variety of birdlife found along our coasts is something that never ceases to amaze me.
Film making has the ability to share more intimate and relatable experiences with the natural world, creating access to nature that a lot of people would otherwise never see.
Sharing stories about wildlife and making them accessible to others, to help people reconnect to nature.
