Catching sunlight, rainwater and nutrients to grow food

This vegetable garden has replaced  a rose bed. The rainwater tank has been installed close to its use site. The garden is small, but is very productive. I have used baths to grow leafy greens ( in background), and nourish the soil by the compost, worm castings and poultry litter I have on site. I love this image because of the way the sunlight shines through the water from the sprinkler. Wandong, Vic Kate Galea
