Back as promised

Miniature yard jungle

June 12, 2016 8:14pm CST
Had a good rest. The weather was good for the most part although today cooled off and got rather dreary. Tested the zoom on the camera to see if it helped the problem I'm having with blurry close up photos. It makes it a lot worse. Daisy/Francine gets far better results with the camera in her tablet. That's where the above picture came from. She took several pictures of the scattered buttercups in the yard. I liked this one best because there is so much more in the picture. The one thing that isn't green or yellow is a spent dandelion flower stalk. If you look closely you can see leaves from Common Plantain, White Clover, some kind of grass as well as other plants I didn't get around to identifying yet. If you look real close there are two baby grasshoppers one in each of the top corners of the photos as well as a caterpillar and what looks like a leaf hopper or spittlebug. This photo is probably worth a thousand words but I'll leave it at that. Hope everyone had a grand weekend.

In the photo yes, but just out of view there are more. The buttercups just aren't as plentiful as some of the other wildflowers that we get back here.

Wow there are a lot of things in that picture if we will just look. Is there a setting hidden somewhere for close ups on you r camera?

We thought there was but when we went into the menu the setting we were using was already the one for close ups. At least the one on the tablet works well.

Yellow is my favourite color and green comes second. I love how that yellow stood out among the greens.

They are hard to see especially since I had to resize downward to get it to post. If your computer will let you zoom in they'll be easier to see.

Cameras are quite complex and the different models do all kinds of different things.

Funny how the smallest of things can bring a good feeling. :-)
