Had the day off today so I went outside in the yard and played around with the new Nikon a little bit this morning. It rained last night and I was able to get some nice macro shots.
These first 2 are of an early Autumn bloomer called seed-um.
This one is some kind of miniature rose, cant remember the name.
Next is one of our Hibiscus bushes that have really taken off this year despite the lack of rain during the middle of summer.
Here are some garden friends, some people don't like snails but they don't seem to bother the flowering plants so we leave them alone. Iv'e heard they can be a pest in the vegetable gardens though.
Summer is now over, the maple leaves are starting to turn and there's not much left in the flower garden. Hopefully in the next few weeks I'll be able to get some nice Autumn color shots to share.
