While our lives are currently more limited due to the pandemic, nature still surrounds us like a reassuring blanket. The International Garden Photographer of the Year is a true celebration of the outdoors and reminds us that nature, big and small, is always there to comfort us and offer joy - a welcome and beautiful distraction in a time of crisis.
