Different Views

Peaceful gardening.


Did you see Brenda's post this week? I love her weekly Blogger tip posts. Went out to the garden to try some of her photography tips.


Fresh picked produce in a very OLD bowl.
Same subject from different angles is what she recommended. 



I had fun just zooming in and out. Laying on the grass like I was all official.


With summer heat the garden is waning a little but that is okay. I like to stay indoors during the heat of the day.


Then every evening I come out with my youngest usually for dessert in the yard. That is when I take a stroll through the garden and water my pots. A nightly ritual I do enjoy.

  1. Taking different views is a lot of fun, I take probably 50 pictures a day and pick the ones I like best. I have lousy taste when it comes to my own work. LOL!

  11. I do the same. I don't rise early enough to get out there before the heat, so early evenings are when I get out in my garden. We ate broccoli from my garden this evening :) Beautiful photos!
