Maple edge

The K20D is still working! When using the 50/4 Macro-Takumar it is very nice to have focus confirmation.

Green stars

I found a sweet 135/2.8 Vivitar lens at Hampden Junque in Baltimore last weekend. I haven’t taken a lot of photos with it yet, but it looks like it worked fine on these maple leaves.

Ghost leaves

Long after all the other leaves have fallen, these leaves hang on, looking and sounding spooky. I found these at Wheaton Regional Park, where I also learned there’s still way too much slushy snow to wear Converse All-Stars.

Pile of oak leaves

Part of last fall’s leaf cleanup effort, which I never quite complete. Many of them are still out there, safe for a while under a blanket of snow.

Dogwood

Another nice tree in our yard – this dogwood’s got pretty white flowers in the spring and the leaves turn this fiery mottled red and yellow in the fall.
