Yesterday, I took my camera on a walk with me to the park. It was such a beautiful day, the first this entire week, it seems. I couldn’t resist. It’s spring, everything is blooming. Even the air feels fresh. I walked out my front door and notice that even the plum tree in my front yard was blooming…
I tweaked my camera setting to “flower”, a setting apparently I didn’t know it existed. The resolution came out better than any other settings and now I know. I think these are my best yet. Plum flowers are incredibly gorgeous, don’t you think?
Anyway, I think more photos will come. I just have to wait for the roses and tulips to bloom.
Gorgeous flowers! Gorgeous photo!

Happy Spring. We have snow again today in upstate New York. Love the plum tree blossoms and can’t wait to see them on my walks:)

Thanks! Happy Spring to you too. I suppose it’s a good thing there’s snow as oppose to here where there’s a shortage of water. 🙂

Too bad we couldn’t share some of the snow and rain with you. There should be a way to capture the excess and bring to locations in need of water.

Cameras have ‘flower’ settings??!!! One thing’s for sure, I’ve learnt a lot from participating in these photo challenges. Off to check my own camera to see if I can find any new settings while admiring your really awesome photos. Nice! 🙂

Mine does, at least that’s how I discovered the setting, while frustratingly trying to take a clear picture of my plum tree. I think there are lots we can learn from participating in these challenges.
Thanks for Reading and good luck discovering your camera. 🙂

One of the things I discovered was the macro and super macro setting; I don’t know how I existed without it. My husband thinks that’s the ‘flower’ setting – how do I know? I’m just glad to point, shoot and post!

I think that’s probably it. I have the macro setting too and when I set it to flower, it pops up but I’m like you too, just point, shoot and post. Just had a little more time on my hand that day to actually play with the camera.
