Description

We’re exploring the parts of our world that require us to look a little deeper. From the depths of our oceans to the canopies that grace our skylines, we’ll be venturing into unfamiliar pockets of nature with the people who have carved a life out of choosing to study the things that many of us can’t see.First up, we meet Matthew Doogue who finds solace in capturing small things. He tells us how photographing the tiniest creatures has helped him find a greater sense of happiness.We also travel to the bottom of the ocean, and discover how even in the most extreme environments fragments of life persist. What can this alien environment teach us about life’s limits and extraordinary capabilities?And finally we head upwards into the canopies of trees with ecologist Nalini Nadkarni. She invites us to to experience canopy life, and reflects upon what it can teach us about relationships and recovery.Thank you for listening to another series of the BBC Earth podcast.As ever, we love hearing from you on social media, so do share with us your favourite episode so far or a story that amazed, surprised or moved you…Website: www.bbcearth.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/bbcearth/Instagram: www.instagram.com/bbcearth/Twitter: www.twitter.com/bbcearth  Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
