Photo Contest Heats Up a Frosty Day

Entries for our 2nd Annual Washington Gardener Photo Contest are now starting to roll in. There is still plenty of time to prepare and get your entries in to us by January 19. See the full contest details and entry form posted here.

The photos here are by frequent contributor Bob Nixon who wanted to show that even on a bleak, gray winters day there is natural beauty to be photographed in the garden. I hope his pictures inspire you and that I'm flooded with entries in the next week.

We have 3 categories -- close-ups of garden plants, garden landscapes, and garden creatures. There will be a 1st, 2nd and 3rd winners in each of these categories plus one overall grand champion. That makes 10 winners in all. Right now, the odds of wining are VERY Good - hint, hint.
