Our Best Garden Photos of 2024
December 5, 2024

I love gardening, and I also enjoy 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 photo of the year turned out to be of the long row of zinnias we grow each year at the edge of our East Garden plot.

Eighty foot row of zinnias

All other use requires prior consent, massive royalty payments, your left pinkie finger...grin (Actually, I'm a pretty soft touch on non-commercial use of my photos, especially for educators. Just , please.)

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