Vegetable Gardens (in colour)

There are as many different ways to grow vegetables as there are people who dream of growing their own food. This lovely photo highlights the end result, with peppers close to being harvested. The selective focus draws the eye to the ripe pepper, and the ground level perspective enhances the plant and composition. Well done and congratulations on 1st Place in "Vegetable Gardens"!

This is a study in the abstract nature of plants, and the hoar frost is a bonus by highlighting the structure of the leaves. The contrast in the image is nice as it picks up the dark and light areas to further enhance the image. Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your Top 10 in "Vegetable Gardens"!

A gardener's joy is getting down and digging in the dirt and it's clear from her expression that she is enjoying her endeavors. The photographer has done a beautiful job of using selective focus on the gardener, while it is still easy to see she is working in the garden.

This creative image highlights that with a little resourcefulness, anything can be a pot for growing vegetables. The trio of lettuce plants are a colorful contrast to the eggshells and soil, and the background is blurred but still clearly more of the garden.

Tomatoes are the quintessential vegetable garden plant. If you have ever tasted a tomato freshly picked from a home garden, you may never buy a supermarket tomato again. This image shows beautifully ripe tomatoes ready to pick contrasted against the healthy green leaves of the plant. Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your Top 10 in "Vegetable Gardens"!
