Photographer Sam Abell

"For well over a thousand years, hedgerows [shown in background] have been a defining attribute of rural Britain, the stitching that holds the fabric of the countryside together. ... Yet they have been disappearing at a rate that many find alarming."

—Text from "Britain's Hedgerows," September 1993, National Geographic magazine

(Photographed on assignment for, but not published in, "Britain's Hedgerows," September 1993, National Geographic magazine)
