This stunning paperback volume showcases the winners and best entries for the "International Garden Photographer of the Year" competition and accompanies a major exhibition at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in May 2011 and touring the UK and USA (to be confirmed) thereafter. "The contemporary camera may be a technological marvel but it can't take photographs, only the photographer can do that. To succeed it involves making an incredible complex of choices and only one chance in the entire history of time to make them as close to perfect as possible. A carefree snap - easy, a composed and considered picture, well, that requires a synergy of skills and perhaps a dash of genius. So that's why this album is such a treat to revel in, its a feast of the worlds best gardens, gardeners, the plants and animals growing and living in them in the very best photographic forms. The images will 'wow' you, make you wish you had been there, wish it was your garden in the picture or wish you had squeezed the button. It's a testament to a huge array of skills and a catalogue of remarkable beauty". (Chris Packham - BBC Presenter and photographer).
