I have just noticed that the 2009 competition for 'Garden Photographer of the Year' has been launched. I have always fancied the idea of entering one or two of my photos but for one reason or another I haven't had the chance to get round to it.
This years categories are:
- Plant Portraits
- Garden Views
- Wildlife in the Garden
- People in the Garden
- The Edible Garden
- Trees
- World Botanic Gardens
With such I high standard of entries I don't stand much chance of winning, but I think it would be a fun thing to do anyway. I am sure you will understand that as a garden lover I would just have to give it a go... ;-)

Oh, you must, Cherie! You take such beautiful garden photos. This one is stunning.
Oh, I didn't know you took this one! I thought it was one of the previous winners... ;-) But yes, I was going to suggest that you try either plant portraits or garden views... :-)
Now that is beautiful Cherie. It can't hurt to enter. That is a well composed and very attractive photo. THe depth of field is very pleasing
Dilly wud luv that! Sheed want to ware it as a bonnet!
Well my opinion is not worth beans but I say go for it. I think your photos are wonderful and you have nothing to lose and you may learn lots from the others.
You must try! You've taken so many beautiful photos, and this one is superb. You've nothing to lose, and a very good chance.
That is to a high standard. Don't put yourself down. Submit it. And, given the amount of hits I get for your Rose by any other name Joey photo it has to stand a very good chance.
I could always bring Rocky to the judging competition to ensure that the judges pick the right one for first prize:-)
