COMMONSCAPES 2012
“He does not know Wimbledon Common who is not familiar with its labyrinths of leafy glades, its tangled thickets of wild red rose, bramble, and honeysuckle; who has not often traversed its turfy plateau and had the perfumes of odoriferous herbs borne in upon his senses; who has not pondered over its rusty pebble, and wondered whence they came..” ~ Walter Johnson: Wimbledon Common; its Geology, Antiquities and Natural History, 1912
I began this series of landscapes in the autumn of 2012 whilst dog-walking Kipper, our new pet out in the woodlands of Wimbledon Common, an area of parkland about 2 miles from where I live. The Common, as it is known is vast and has it's own macrocosms of habitat, trees and vegetation, so unique and natural, and perfect for photography through the changing seasons. Commonscapes is an on-going project, which now covers other natural landscapes as well.
