About this Blog

Welcome to Gabriel Hemery's website and blog, with news, opinions, information and tips. Read about science, photography, books, art, practice, and more - all with a focus on trees.

I created and started writing this blog in May 2010, in celebration of 18 years working as a forest scientist or silvologist.

I write all the posts and administer the blog myself. I welcome comment and feedback, and will attempt to reply whenever possible. Comments are moderated before publishing and I reserve the right not to show those that: are personally insulting to me, other individuals, and/or organisations; contain deliberately inflammatory references; contain abusive, racist, or sexist statements.

I may earn a small commission for my endorsement, recommendation, testimonial, and/or link to any products or services from this website. I will always make such cases clear in my content. Any purchase you make helps support my work in bringing you well-researched and trustworthy information about trees and the environment. Read my Disclosure.

This is my personal website and blog. The opinions expressed here are independent from those of my employer and any organisation with which I am connected.
