Life often presents us with unexpected events that can transform our lives, for better or worse. Much depends on our perspective regarding what we cannot control. In Still Life: A Photographer’s Journey Through Grief and Gardening, the talented photographer Jane Fulton Alt channels her grief following her husband’s passing into a continuation of his gardening journey. This remarkable blend of words and imagery has deeply inspired me, and I’m excited to share my personal recommendation for this book.

Why I Recommend Still Life by Jane Fulton Alt

Still Life by Jane Fulton Alt
The fusion of gardening and photography has served as one of my inspirations this summer as I peruse its pages and read the author’s reflections. The photography is absolutely stunning—I adore it! I received the hardcover edition of Still Life in early spring, allowing me ample time to contemplate how—and whether—I wanted to share it with you.

Still Life is a must-read for gardeners of all ages. I believe the younger version of myself would have eagerly flipped through its pages, feeling inspired to capture more photographs and create sketches of gardens and nature. Today, it serves as a poignant reminder of how much nature can influence my outlook on life—and that’s quite profound for me to express!
