June 2024 - Photo Newsletter Director's Message
Summer is only a few weeks away and our gardens are already in their glory. I recently joined the RIFGC tour to Southern England Gardens and the Chelsea Flower Show.

 We visited many interesting properties and gardens. 
It was a wonderful opportunity to practice the photography skills that Arabella has been teaching us. The photo above was at Stourhead House. I was trying to capture the beautiful reflections in the pond. 
I encourage you to use your creative eye to frame the perfect photo (or two) for the NEGC photo contest. 

The top four winners in each category will be on display at the NEGC Annual Meeting in Rhode Island in October.

Enjoy the early summer as our environment and gardens burst with feasts for our senses!
