Garden Picture Galleries

Think Big - Think Small

Think of all the beautiful things there are to photograph even in the smallest garden - from vistas and landscapes to dew drops and bees collecting pollen. There are colours of flowers, patterns of foliage, and textures in plant borders.

The following links are loosely grouped together under the heading 'Garden Pictures'. They represent a variety of images of gardens and gardening. Some sites will provide a visual commentary on gardens and their plantings, while others may be truly artistic.
