  • A lorry unloads its cargo of wood chippings in a disused aircraft hanger on an airfield in Suffolk, United Kingdom. There are about 50 tonnes of chippings stored here ready for use in wood chip burning boilers.  This area of the UK is rich in woodland and this wood can provide a sustainable source of heat when used in efficient boilers. This is exactly what local schools are doing thanks to the local council which is managing the resource while supplying wood-fuel for heating. The initiative saves the schools energy, reduces CO2 emissions by 1,200 tonnes a year and cuts their fuel bills by up to 25%.  Suffolk County Council won an Ashden Award for its approach to susatainability.

  • "Puddle in Oxleas Wood." A six month-old infant looks out from a baby back carrier frame whilst out on a muddy winter jaunt in Oxleas Wood on Shooters Hill, South London. The girl peers out with a fascination for the outdoors from a warm coat wearing a tiny hat and loose-fitting gloves to view the world while perched high-up on her mother's back who carries her child on the chilly walk. The bare trees and forested landscape can be imagined from the waterlogged puddle that is out of focus to the right. This is from a documentary series of pictures about the first year of the photographer's first child Ella. Accompanied by personal reflections and references from various nursery rhymes, this work describes his wife Lynda's journey from expectant to actual motherhood and for Ella - from new-born to one year-old.

  • A home made charcoal making system in Stone Town, Zanzibar. When a tree is felled to make charcoal it is chopped up and set light to then buried under soil and palm leaves and left to smoulder for several days. The wood burns at high temperatures which pyrolyzes the wood. The making and use of charcoal contributes to deforestation and air pollution. It is an affordable fuel used for cooking across Africa.
