When I travel, I carry my camera in my lap or in the seat next to me. It seems there are always amazing things waiting to be captured.
The youngest one usually laughs at me and says, "Grandma, you forgot to take the lens thingy off again." Ahh, wisdom of children.

Macro is the theme this week

Fun in the snow - I read about snowflakes and macro and thought "hmmm... that looks fairly easy" and I certainly found out sometimes things are not nearly as easy as one would  think.  I decided of course to try it.  With mediocre satisfaction I post a few 'first attempts.'  When the next snow is predicted, and hopefully its falling at a time other than 2 am, I encourage you to take your macro lens and camera, find a dark surface, and experiment.  I suggest carrying a paper towel to swipe the surface in which the snowflakes are going to be landing. Good Luck.

After the attempts with snowflakes as individuals,  I went for a walk around the yard. That didn't last very long, because when you get old it doesn't take long to experience enough cold for one evening.

I tried to find some 'snow' shots but only one "winter flower" caught my eye.
