Last spring I missed many flowers….because I was too busy to stop….so I made a pack with myself that this spring I would stop. On this particular road trip I spotted these…

Tried to set the aperture for a shallow depth of field…but the wind wasn’t cooperating….made the flowers blurry…so with a few adjustments managed to get a few shots. These two were my favorite.

Got a little bored and started playing around with my camera’s timer…aperture setting….and light….and came up with this selfie…inside the house was dark and outside was very light…exposure was about 20 seconds…

Started playing with my Nikons aperture settings while getting a few shots of Dandelions. Found these little guys in our driveway while bringing in groceries…. after I got the milk in the refrigerator I grabbed my camera and headed back outside. What really struck me about these fluffy little remains…was the deep rich color of the seeds.

Really loved the rich burgundy color against the white moon cratered center....

The aperture was set on (f/22) for this shot....this blurred the background into a solid so the focus could be on the white fluff of the dandelion...

Not sure how I feel about these photos…but decided to go ahead and share them. Each photo is of a different type of moss I found this spring. Zoomed in like this….the moss takes on a landscape feeling….some look like miniature forest viewed from the window of an airplane…others look like mis-colored lava flows….either way…abstraction was the goal.

This little Carolina Wren hopped around….flew inside the house….then out again to catch bugs and sign songs. Over all a very nice day for bird watching.

Love this little daisy looking flower….grows low to the ground and seems to prefer SE facing slopes.

Native Georgia spring flower called Blood Root....Native Americans used this plant as body paint...
