|
Watch out, I've got a new digital camera. Not a high end one, but definitely an upgrade point & shoot (Canon A530, 5mp, 4X optical zoom).
You lose a lot by resizing small, so to see larger photos & the others, visit my webpage.

Anyone can take a photo Pianolady but the angle and subject have to be just right. So you see it's not just the new camera that takes good photographs it's definately you too!!!
I could look at pics of your garden all day long it's soooo beautiful.

I planned a few areas, but really just buy and plop in the ground, then divide, divide, divide. I'll try something, and if I don't like it, move it or rip it out. It's been years now, so now I'm to the point of removing plants more often than adding.
The annuals are only used to fill in bare spots where I want some color, and I don't get many.
