Our Best Garden Photos of 2017
November 14, 2017

I love gardening, and I also love taking pictures. Publishing Senior Gardening allows me to combine both avocations. Most of the photos below have appeared somewhere on Senior Gardening during the last year.

My favorite shot of the year was of an incredibly delicious seedless watermelon. Often, seedless varieties don't measure up in flavor to their seeded ancestors. This one did.

Clicking on an image will open a larger version of it in a new tab or window. Hovering your mouse over any image should display a description of the image.

All photos on this page are copyrighted, but may be used for desktop photos without permission or payment. All other use requires prior consent, massive royalty payments, your left pinkie finger... (Actually, I'm a pretty soft touch on non-commercial use of my photos, especially for educators. Just , please.)

I'm a sucker for shots of apple blossoms. After stewing a bit over which one was best, I decided to use all three photos taken in early April.

I do turn the camera for vertical shots sometimes.

And a few larger shots...

Photo Gear

I haven't changed any of our photo gear since last year, so I'll just provide a link to that information for those who might be interested in what I use.
