I am a photographer, poet, philosopher and long-distance road trip enthusiast living in Australia. I am especially fond of photographing trees and the remarkable patterns, textures and pareidolia to be found in their bark.

A reminder of one of the loveliest pairs of siblings in the dictionary: ‘muscle’ and ‘mouse’. To the Roman imagination, the flexed biceps of a (typically naked) athlete resembled a rodent scuttling under the skin. ‘Musculus’, in Latin, means ‘little mouse’.
