Inspiration

I have gladly left the picture taking to S over the past few years. He has a gently creative and analytical eye. And a really nice camera. But, I am now feeling the need to reach out and learn new things. So I braved the mosquitoes and the water logged Sony to try to document our garden as it is right now.
A sampling of our bounty




I suppose I could have moved the the hose out of the way and removed our impromptu compost pile from the middle of the lawn, but this is how it looks most days. Just trying to go for an honest shot, right? Ignore the bare brown spots on the lawn. It's been the hottest and most dry month in history, or something. Next, I will learn to take pictures before the sun starts to go down! Truthfully, this garden - the zinnias and roses and tomatoes - makes me take a deep breath and take responsibility. And now I know how to download pictures and update the blog all by myself.
