Pacific Northwest Gardening: I can take close-ups now, 1 by Kyra

Since DH is usually muttering about what whiz-bang new piece of electronics we need in our lives, I managed to ignore rumblings about new cameras for quite a while. Not that I usually take many pictures, since it often takes several days to get DD to return our older camera from her den and up to several more before I give up on DH finding the heap of memory cards he stashed somewhere. However, when I was trying to get decent close-ups of sickly leaves early in the summer to post here for help, and everything blurred, I had to admit he had a point. To cut to the chase, the chosen camera was finally back in stock and came home with us yesterday. With luck, (more likely horrible threats, like denial of cookies) it will not be kidnapped by teenagers and I can shoot my garden. That and the first rain I've seen since the 4th of July is adding up to a pretty chipper day.
