Green and Black, regrowth.

Some months after the Lennox heads bushfire I return to find the green overgrowing the black. With the sounds and colours of new growth and new life beginning to truly mask the black ash that was left in the aftermath of a bushfire.

Prostanthera lasianthos(?)

These little beauties I found on the forestier peninsula way out in the bush. When I came along there was a beautiful crab spider hiding within, but it was apparently quite shy . Check out my website for prints, licensing or to contact me for image use requests: www.jamesdoreyphotography.com.au

These little wildflowers grow in open paddocks under dead trees through parts of Tasmania, providing food for the native bees that continue to survive after summer has already ended.

Twisted tree

Inland Australia is a monotonous place in some ways, with a landscape that may barely change for 100's of kilometers. However, there is something absolutely amazing about the landscape, from its broad grandeur down to a single wind and drought-twisted tree. It is a magical place.

blue flax-lily (Dianella caerulea)

Native Ginger (Alpinie caerula)

I love native ginger - it's a nice plant to look at, AND leaf cutter bees like to chop it up, so you know when they are around :)

Wavyleaf Basketgrass (Oplismenus undulatifolius)

Pothos longipes

Bolwarra (Eupomatia laurina)

Sandpaper Fig (Ficus coronata)

Glowing fungi (Mycena lampadis)

This wonderful glowing fungus was found in a remnant rainforest near Byron Bay. Small clusters of it glowed in the rotting logs and leaflittler of the forest floor in January of 2017.
