Leavesnbloom is the place where gardening, nature and photography grow together.

I'm a passionate wildlife gardener and garden photographer and writer. Furthermore I enjoy soaking up nature and I'm easily distracted from doing the weeding by anything that buzzes, creeps, crawls or flutters.

My work has been featured in national newspapers and magazines as well as on TV on BBC2's The Beechgrove Garden. You can view many of my images at the only photographic gallery in Scotland - Close Gallery, 4b Howe Street, Edinburgh.
