A Year In The Life Of A Field

For one year Michael Allaby studied the life of an ordinary field in Cornwall; it’s vegetation, the creatures and seasonal shifts. It is a quiet reflection on the meaning of human habitation and how we affect nature through our presence both for the positive and the negative.

It is rare that we stop and really look for any length of time, certainly not an entire year, Michael teaches us that through pausing and inspecting we can gain great wisdom.
