Garden Photography In The San Bernardino Mountains

Updated on August 19, 2016

There is something invigorating about photographing a garden up in the San Bernardino Mountains. During the summer months the climate is ideal for growing a variety of fruits, vegetable, and flowers, which is something I documented with my camera back in July. Come with me for a virtual tour of a garden with the photogenic Sweety cat prancing about. If you enjoy garden photography like me, then grab your digital camera and take some photographs of your garden to share here on Hubpages. So what is your favorite fruit and/or vegetable to pick in the garden? I would have to say mine are chili peppers and tomatoes, just to share.
