Most of his subjects come from the Easterly rainforests of the Mid North Coast of NSW Australia. There are also a number of photographs compiled from his research into the occurrence of Myxos in the Eromanga region in South West QLD.

The book also has thought-provoking musings accompanying each image. Information about his photographic techniques can also be found within.
