Dartmoor Infrared

I took the infrared camera into Wistman's Wood but the images were not a success as there was so much green around that the images lacked any contrast at all. Here are some other infrared images from Dartmoor that did work well. The first one shows the walk to Wistman's Wood.

Wistman's Wood

I visited Wistman's Wood today and spent several hours wandering around the wood. It is a magical place with mosses, lichens and ferns dripping off the old trees and boulders. 

Ancient Woodland

 
I hoped to get to Black Tor Copse but it was a bit too far for my painful knee so I went to a nearer copse which proved to have a few pedunculate oaks and a lot of rocks, moss and lichens. The effects of a very dry winter are very evident with many of the mosses and ferns drying out.

Black Tor

The walk up towards Black Tor Copse produced some very interesting trees and dartmoor ponies.
