Description

This is a breathtaking collection of photographs showcasing the stunning natural beauty of Australia's tragically threatened 'old growth' forests.The old growth forests of Australia are amongst the world's most precious natural assets. They play a crucial role in maintaining the Earth's biodiversity and ecological functions, as well as providing a home to a great number of plant and animal species who depend upon the unique environmental conditions created by the forests.Tragically, these global treasures are being systematically destroyed, habitats incinerated, and unique species wiped out. "Old Growth" is a collection of breathtaking photographs that showcase the almost supernatural beauty of these endangered forests, and a call to action - only by speaking out can we stop the destruction.
