My Monday

Wednesday is my Monday and the beginning of a hectic week here at Springs Preserve (Ice Cream Festival this Saturday!). It was nice to start my day in the calm beauty of the garden.

 This honey bee was resting and let me take a nice photo before flying away.

Morning Flowers

I love apache plume plants. Such beautiful textures and shapes in the morning sunlight. The honey bees are loving the abundant langman's sage also!

 

 

 

More macro lens fun!

Wow! I like this 100mm lens

A friend of mine let me borrow his 100mm lens this morning. I usually use the 18-55mm lens that came with my Canon EOS Rebel T3 so this was quite a treat.
