Title: In My Garden
Post by: RachelleAZ on August 06, 2008, 08:18:27 PM
I love gardening but it has taken a backseat this year as we had a precious new little one to spend our time with. Our garden usually has a host of volunteer plants that were either self seeded/sown or brought in by the birds and with this year's neglect, there are even more than usual. This is wonderful thing when one has not made the garden a priority! Here are some of the volunteers I found this morning ...

Lovely to see these flowers, Rachelle!  Wow!  You have some beauties.

I really like the sunflower photo.  It almost seems to have been photographed following the "rule of thirds" where the main topic isn't in the dead centre.  It makes for a very interesting photo and besides that, I just love sunflowers!  I didn't plant any this year so looking at yours is just great for me.

Hope we see more!

I second Pat's choice of the sunflowers as the best.  In addition to having the main element nicely positioned, there is a very strong diagonal formed by the flowers that adds interest to the picture.

I like the strong, saturated colors, also.
