Trees and the Landscape
Some of the images on this page display a strange combination of 3 words next to the title i.e. ///force.fab.whale, this is a what3words address.
Using the what3words system, every 3m square in the world has been given a unique combination of three words, and I use it here to represent the exact location of my position in the landscape when taking the photograph (even when trespassing). The occasional prefix ‘OL’ denotes the location of an object itself.
