Matthew Benson’s photo tips
•Get up early and stay out late. Early and late light are magical. Gardens are more vibrant when the sun is not directly overhead.
•Back-light. Shoot into the light, putting the plant material between you and the sunlight.
•Move around through your garden to get a better angle on your picture.
•Have a point of view. Try to tell a story about what you are shooting.
•Don’t be afraid to edit. Delete shots that aren’t what you expected. Then try new ways to approach that shot.
