He really captures the lushness. The textures and colors foil each other so well. I was curious about the perspective of the graveled area; it surprised me that he didn’t zoom in more, as this is a blank area. I’m no photog, tho. These are magazine worthy.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, Phillip. Interesting how others often see different things than we do.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. Your garden would be lovely no matter who was taking the pictures but David has a great eye and used it well. My views of my garden are usually filtered by all the things that need to be done. If I can step away from that and enjoy it for what it is at that moment, it always shifts everything and sometimes even takes my breath away. Thanks for sharing these beautiful views.
ReplyDeleteYour garden looks lovely from any angle, Phillip. The sixth photo offers an intriguing view I don't think I've seen before. however.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have recognized it as your garden! Except for the purple wall... Totally different perspective, just as gorgeous though!

Beautiful no matter how you look at it. I do agree that others look at our gardens different and it is fun to see it in photos their way.
ReplyDeleteDavid is an excellent photographer, and you are an excellent gardener!
