Green – outside my studio window

After a brief rain shower.
Overlooking the wetlands outside my studio window.

I know Florida is almost unbearably hot and humid but I’ll take the green it supports any day.

Fun with a classic digicam.

Canon PowerShot A40 from 2002.

The image below is a straight-from-the-camera shot with this awesome little digicam.

Full auto exposure. Great color and, at 2 megapixels, good resolution.

The ‘Magic Kingdom’.
The blossom, ant, and a hidden face.
“Amelia’s Mermaids’. A local statue here at the beach and a perfect place to test cameras and lenses.
