Had another thought just now when you mentioned the camera refusing to focus, Gita. I had trouble with my first digital camera not focusing on some close-up shots until I realized I could use the macro setting OR I could use the zoom -- but not both! I have some very blurry photos of a friendly gecko in Hawaii... LOL So if you're hitting the zoom button to close in on a macro shot, don't!

We've been having fun with our daffodils. One of the benefits of planting lots of fall bulbs most years is having so many blooms that picking lots of bouquets doesn't make much of a dent. *big grin*

The front bed is chock full of blooms (that's the area I replanted and finished with in fall before my shoulder went out), and between the hyacinths and some of the daffs, it smells sooo good! The hyacinth clumps are along the driveway side, where my lavender hedge used to be... I'll be putting in new lavender plants soon; meanwhile the hyacinths have to take care of perfuming the air!

3rd photo is 'Jetfire'. I'm glad we got this little cutie; it's lining my front walk and just looking so perky!
