Explore Nature at Its Best in Photos
Since I am a gardener, it stands to reason that I love everything beautiful in nature. There are times that I am simply amazed by the beautiful, unusual and sometimes humble side of our planet. I especially love unusual nature photos.
I thought it would be fun to have an ongoing page featuring some of my favorite nature photos, some beautiful, some puzzling and some downright ugly, but all still impressive.
