High summer in the Jarrah forest a bush fire passed through this area about five years ago and apart from this blackened tree it looks like it never happened.

Fire buttress jarrah tree…

2011.11.09

Canon 5D f7.1 1/20s ISO320 EF100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM
Life in the Jarrah forest moves slowly, live here and once attuned with the seasons one realizes how short human life is in comparison to the elements of the forest. This Jarrah is at least 300 years old and even though it has been burnt out by fire many times it still survives. The buttress roots have been burnt away with each successive fire to the point where only two remain and the centre of the tree has gone. But these two huge roots are large enough and deep enough to carry all the nutrition the tree needs to maintain life to produce leaves,flowers and seeds to start the next generation.

A fire engine in my garden…

2010.11.18

Olympus PEN EP-2 f13 1/250s ISO 200

No series of photographs would be complete without a fire engine! I decided on this one because the engine related to the fire still burning in the background and also because of the total contrast beween it and the garden in which it is parked!
