Illuminate '23 is the 10th annual exhibition by the Friends Photographic Group.
'Illuminate' has two meanings: one is about physical light, and the other is about intellectual or spiritual enlightenment. The exhibition invites us to discover, appreciate and value Australia’s unique flora and fauna.
The exhibition features photographs taken within the Gardens, and of Australian fauna and flora in their natural environment. The works include plant portraits, close-up shots of flowers, birds and insects, intimate landscapes within the Gardens, and fauna from our local region.
All photographs on show are for sale – and they make great Christmas presents! Additional copies of some works can be ordered, and other items for sale include unframed prints, greeting cards, and specialty calendars.
The exhibition runs from Thursday 23 November until Sunday 10 December, from 9.30 am to 4.30 pm at the ANBG Visitor Centre.
