Around the Yard


This one is pretty, but I had a difficult time balancing the contrast in the actual flower.

So a tighter crop is better



Awesome green spider, missing one leg...





These rose of Sharon buds are on a bush that has been here since we bought our house. This has been a very good year for the bush.




Around the yard with my new camera




Enjoying the view of the tiny world that exists there!

I hope you enjoyed this chronicle of a couple of my nature photography walks. This is therapy...a nice diversion from all my Spanish homework grading!
