Ten years ago, we moved from a large home on two rural acres in the Sand Canyon area of the Santa Clarita Valley, with expansive views, to a smaller mid-century home in Old Town Newhall. The yard and gardens were much more compact in this urban environment, but by looking more closely, I found just as many moments of inspiration for new creative expressions.

These images are the result of selecting my best original garden photographs from the past ten years and applying careful cropping and subtle digital enhancements (no AI!), honed over decades of experience as an art director and commercial digital artist.
