Photography

A year in the life of a garden

2 Comments

For the second post on CKPonderingsToo, I am going back in time.

A few years ago, I set myself a project; to take a photo of my back garden every week for a year and see the seasons come and go.

I set myself a couple of aims with the project:

  • Take a shot at around the same time every Sunday morning (or as soon after, if I wasn’t around on the Sunday).
  • Take the photo from the same place.
  • No post-production was allowed – what you see it what you get.

At the time, this was a great project. The only downside was that, after a year of photographing the garden, I was a little fed up with it, so the images never got to see the light of day.

Until now!

We start with a slideshow of the year; below are the 52 clickable images.
