Gather has taught me to look for beauty in my own backyard. I love looking at photos from our vacations, but this group is a challenge to all of us to look for beauty in the everyday scenery that surrounds us. This group is for photos taken in your home, your own backyard, or within a block of your home, or a mile, if you live in the country. Hopefully this will help us all appreciate the beauty in our own little corners of the world.
