An Afternoon at Abkhazi
I spent a recent afternoon at the lovely, peaceful Abkhazi garden in Victoria, BC. I’m really excited to be working on a few video projects with the Land Conservancy of BC- it’s inspiring and encourages me to spend more time shooting and editing video.
I tried to incorporate all aspects of the garden in this video- the flowers, ducks, turtles, landscapes, humans, insects, silence…
Molly and Murray, resident ducks, enjoy the garden with their young ones.
“The Abkhazi Garden is an exquisite heritage home and garden located in Victoria, British Columbia…Prince and Princess Abkhazi began creating their garden in 1946.”
The Abkhazis worked together on their creation for over 40 years, referring to it as “their child”. After their deaths the Garden changed hands, and in February 2000, The Land Conservancy purchased the property to save it from becoming a townhouse development.”

This one is for my good friend Jeska, who giggles uncontrollably every time the ducks “stick their butts in the air”- making it very difficult to get a steady shot of them.
The mallards are Molly and Murray, resident ducks at Abkhazi Garden. I’ve been working on a story about the garden and will post more photos later.
