International Garden Photographer of the Year Celebrating Five Years of Award-Winning Images

From an exquisitely detailed close-up of a delicate flower to sweeping, panoramic garden vistas, this sumptuous book showcases the talents of some of the world's best garden photographers, both professional and amateur

A compilation of the very best images from the first five years of the International Garden Photographer of the Year competition are presented in this beautiful volume. The competition was established in 2008, and is the world's premier competition specializing in garden, plant, flower, and botanical photography. Garden photography is a hugely diverse photographic subject, combining artistic interpretation with the wonders of the natural environment around us. For some it's about a love of the beauty of plants; for others it's an opportunity to express an appreciation of the wider natural landscape and its inherently fragile nature. Ultimately, it's about a love of the diversity of the natural world and its ability to continually surprise, inspire, and delight.
