Oak woodland on Dartmoor
Oak woodland on Dartmoor. Moss-covered stunted oak trees and rocks in Black-a-Tor Copse, a woodland area located at an altitude of around 380 metres in the West Okement River valley, Dartmoor, Devon, UK. The altitude and conditions give rise to stunted growth, with pedunculate oak trees (Quercus robur) covered in mosses, ferns and lichens, which also cover the rocks. The wood is a rare relict of the ancient high-level woodlands of Dartmoor. This site is a National Nature Reserve (NNR), and is within the North Dartmoor Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Designated since 1952, this SSSI was extended to include this copse

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of an oak woodland on Dartmoor, located in Devon, UK. The moss-covered stunted oak trees and scattered rocks create a mesmerizing scene within Black-a-Tor Copse, nestled at an altitude of approximately 380 meters in the West Okement River valley. The unique conditions found at this high elevation give rise to stunted growth, with pedunculate oak trees adorned with lush mosses, ferns, and lichens that also blanket the surrounding rocks. This woodland is a rare relic from ancient times when Dartmoor's woodlands flourished at higher levels. Designated as a National Nature Reserve (NNR) since 1952 and part of the North Dartmoor Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), this protected area showcases the remarkable biodiversity present in its ecosystem. The granite-rich soil supports various botanical species while providing a habitat for diverse wildlife. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel the dampness in the air and sense the tranquility that permeates through these woods. It is a testament to nature's resilience and adaptability as it thrives amidst challenging conditions. Bob Gibbons has skillfully captured not only the visual splendor but also highlights how important it is to preserve such precious habitats for future generations to appreciate and cherish.
