Meldon Wood Dartmoor, Devon, UK

Photographically, this image, captured yesterday in my local woodland, is nothing very remarkable. But it means a lot to me personally. An opportunity to walk once more in the woods, three long, dark, hard months after suffering a prolapsed disc in my lower back. I still have a lot of nerve damage and inflammation. I’ve been told it may take months to completely clear and I can’t carry a backpack until all the inflammation has subsided. But after weeks of physio and daily exercises, I can now walk 2-3 miles with a compact camera and a small travel tripod. It may not seem like much, but there are few places I’d rather be than walking in the woods with a camera.
