This one is out of focus. I loved the white glads.


8X diopter, depth of field about a micron. I photograph mood as much as
anything else. I like the lines and the subtle colors. You should see my
pictures of hints of bees, suggestions of flowers, mysteries of where the
hummingbird went. :-)


Here's an example, an American Chestnut tree I grew from a nut I germinated
in my refrigerator over the winter. The nut came from a disease-resistant
tree growing on Old Mission Peninsula, handed out to interested gardeners by
the members of the garden club there. White Pine and Douglas Fir
surrounding.

Is there a FAQ for this group? These pictures suffer from two things, my
ultra-slow modem dial-up connection and the perceived need to resize them
excessively. The camera takes .jpgs from 3-12mb, depending on circumstance,
simply too large to post, I believe. The originals, when viewed in all
their detail, are much nicer than these dumbed-down images.

Greetings from Michigan.
