Even before the spring weather causes plants to start growing again, there are beautiful things to see in the woods.

The pipes are calling
Walking through the fog
Waiting for paint to dry
Yes, it’s an exciting life I lead.
Finally got my kitchen window frames painted today.
Sunset skyline
I believe this is the first time I’ve ever taken pictures of a sunset during the winter. I guess the lesson is, you’re not going to get good photos if you don’t get out there.

Testing the new lens
I’ve been interested in getting a longer lens for a while (especially to get closer to wildlife). A few days ago I bought a Promaster 70-300mm F/4-5.6 macro lens. Since normal telephoto shooting is fairly straightforward, I was anxious to test the lens’ macro capability. The conservatory at Olbrich Gardens would be the perfect spot to do that.
I’m going to like being able to get in close, like the above shot of the very young and fuzzy ficus leaves.
