James Ottobre captures both the lighter and coloration in his organic garden with an artist ’s heart .
" My organic garden is in Inverness , California , and the total embed expanse is one Accho . The landscape includes both flowers and vegetables . I go up the garden as a seasonal art induction , looking for the most vibrant colors available for each time of year . The beds are set with vegetables and flowers for the most visual impact using both heirloom and intercrossed varieties . The garden brings me new experience every day . As the sun travel by over , the swooning change in the garden , so I keep the camera nearby to capture the mood and light changeover . "
