Ghost Gum
Northern Territory, AustraliaIn the arid surrounds of Standley Chasm stands this lone ghost gum. Clinging tenuously to its perch, it juts out of the side of a narrow gorge at an amazing angle. Sandwiched between the rocks, I precariously set up my tripod at root level, and shooting from an extremely low vantage was able to give this shot the radical perspective I wanted. 10 Artist Proof / 100 Limited Edition

Some Native SW Australian Pea Flower
This region is full of pea flowers. Many bright colours occur every year in spring via these fine plants. Some are climbers, some fierce, prickly shrubs, some are creepers; and some - like this one - very low-growing tiny plants. Western flats of Stirling Range National Park, Western Australia
