    Smile Grandma's Garden.

    Hope ya'll had a happy Easter. Straight from Granda's garden.That's all... nothin' fancy. Thought I'd share some Easter colors. :O)




    b.t.w. The spider pic.s are in-camera zoom crop resize.Loss of resolution. That spider is about 8mm long...TINY. I need a macro lense...bad.

    I like the last two, but the focus seems off on 2 & 4 mostly on 2 the spider is blurry. You have to be careful how close you get with pictures like this. My most common mistake is getting closer than the lens will focus.

    I lke the last one (with the yellow flowers--sometimes pictures show up in a different order to me), but it appears a bit faded.

    #3 and the last one work for me. I especially like #3, the overlapping and underlapping of the petals and colors are gorgeous. I would blow it up, matte and frame it if it were mine.

    #1 Top with spider nicely captured

    #2 out of focus spider spoils this

    #3 Like the colours and composition

    #4 A little bland but what is the blue stuff

    #5 I would have included the head of the bottom flower but nicely captured.
