Whenever I travel to make a presentation I try to incorporate some local gardens into the show to better connect with the audience.
My presentation in Chicago to the Garden Club of America’s Show of Summer was titled ‘What is a “Good” Garden Photograph’ and The Chicago Botanic Garden was the obvious choice to go find a photo. It is a great botanic garden and has an especially strong focus on home landscaping, so the day before the show I went looking for something to illustrate a “good” garden photograph.
