Description

Tree ferns are one of the oldest species of plants on the planet! Their fossils are often found dating back to the age when dinosaurs roamed the earth millions of years ago. This special triptych shows their wonderful fractal fronds reaching upwards and was taken in England at a gardens in Cornwall where they thrive and grow tall due to the warm climate on the south coast of the United Kindgom. I am minting this edition as part of a special event to celebrate Australia and New Zealand on the Tezos blockchain - tezAus. Tree ferns grow in many parts of the Australian mainland and on the two large islands of New Zealand but it is a special place that I want to highlight with this nft and that is the island of Tazmania where they also grow in abundance. Why Tazmania? Well it holds a special place in my journey as a landscape artist as it is where the large format photographer Peter Dombrovskis worked and lived. He spent most of his life photographing the wonderful mountains, rivers, coasts and forests that make up this unique island and was also involved with conserving its stunning wilderness. Through his images of the Franklin River the plans to dam it were shelved and he was awarded a place on the International Photography Hall of Fame after his death in 1996. He left an amazing legacy of landscape images of the Island of Tazmania and he is one of my all-time heroes. This triptych is my tribute to a wonderful artist and his beautiful body of work. My deepest respect to you Peter and your family. #TezAus Artist: Paul Moon Location: Cornwall Year: 2022 License Extended Editorial: Can be used to display privately, or in commercial and non-commercial settings, or in groups with an unlimited number of participants.
