The 11th Annual Friends Photographic Group exhibition highlights the different moods and inhabitants of the Gardens,
as seen through the eyes and cameras of a diverse group of Friends photographers. It illuminates aspects of the Gardens that visitors may not otherwise be aware of.
Frozen moments of time give everyone the opportunity to witness some of the rare events that take place in the Gardens. A thoughtful photo can reveal things that we ordinarily overlook, like the rich colours and textures of wet bark and the tiny insects that are so vital to the ecosystems.
Framed prints, unframed prints, cards and tote bags available for purchase.
