Wow! That is beautiful. I wish I had a lens that could achieve that. Some day, some day! I'll just enjoy my childrens portraiture for now ;)

Heather, thank you. It's not me, it's my camera's zoom lens. It really amazes me sometimes.

I guess you deleted my comment. Oh, well. I refuse to delete links, because I think it's a stupid idea.

Sometimes, I think I prefer an afternoon moon to the usual night moon. This is a particularly nice example.

VioletSky, I feel the same as you. The afternoon moon has a unique allure. Thanks so much.

yes, my image of the "old sailing ship" in San Francisco is the Balclutha! I should have written the name in the text! Thank you for your visit!

I love these late afternoon hours when both, the Sun and the Moon are on the sky.
Beautiful shot of the Moon on the clear, blue sky.

Macro Flowers Saturday is back, hope to see you there later.

Wow, what a great shot. I just bought a new camera, and it is certainly better than what I was using before, but I think I need to add a zoom lens like yours. Great shot--I want to be able to do that too. Mickie :)

Oh Maia, you have no idea how happy that makes me. I will work on a post today. Thank you and I hope you are doing much better.

forgetmenot, What camera did you buy? Yes zoom lenses are great if you have one. Thanks for commenting.

Beautiful moon with such a blue sky! My camera is incapable to this..

Icy, thanks. My camera just happens to have a great zoom lens on it. Though sometimes they come out blurry. With this particular shot, I had to take it a few times before it came out right.

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
