A few hand-held shots from Patapsco State Park. I need to take a picture of dogwood and redbud blooming together, because for me that represents spring in Maryland.
Lots of great pictures. I'll play too. I might normally have had some nice daffodil pictures, but the daffodils were late and sparse at my favorite location for shooting them.
Instead, I'll post this shot from the Japanese Friendship Garden in San Jose. Th photo is just a bit deceptive.
I guess Will that if the sun is shining and there's no snow on the ground, you take that as a mark of Spring...
For most of us it is flowers... and we see some fine examples on this thread. I'll add another, taken yesterday in front of a home I pass often as i meander through local streets on my way home. I finally stopped...
These were shot with a forty year old manual focus lens, the 200 f/4 Q.C. AI'd, wide open, hand held. I picked up an EX+ copy of this lens with the Nikon AI conversion kit for $75. Manual focus lenses equal GREAT value for money.
