Glowing helicopters

We went to Brookside Gardens to check out the azaleas and found these extra-bright maple seeds by the goose poo pond.

Grounded samara

I brought the K20D all the way to Alaska and it only worked for a couple of photos. Back home in the backyard it’s totally reliable – so frustrating! All the little helicopter seeds on the red maple fell while we were gone, so there’s a nice layer of them all over the patio.

Little red helicopters

A bunch of bright red samaras on our red maple tree in the backyard. Shot with the Vivitar 135/2.8 screw-mount lens that I found in Baltimore.
