Spring Blooms - Part 2

The part of Picasa that really helps is if you can remember only part of a name - say Monarch in Malaysian Monarch. Anything, even butterflies, can show up when you type it in. I'm sure it will be even more helpful as time goes by.

So it 'interprets' the search term and 'knows' to return photos of butterflies?? That's impressive.

It would go by the word Monarch, thus giving me Malaysian Monarch and the photos labeled Monarch Butterflies.

I just did a Picasa search for Victor and this is what I got:

Dahlia Victoria Ann
Lobelia Queen Victoria
Hem Victorian Days
Hem Victorian Lace
LA iris Megan Victoria
Salvia Victoria Blue

and this one...

I was saving it for the next time I had to say, "Victor!"

pirl, and patti- i am going to look into picasa... you make it sound fun, even!
I am turning over a new leaf, already. I have been taking pictures, writing down dates, keeping lists of what i've ordered, saving receipts. I have a bookkeeper helping me keep my small landscaping business in line, and she is sooo helpful.. i'm learning.
here's one problem- I don't like my camera. Victor- you seem to know your tools- what do you have?

Camera? I have a Sony H1, which is probably no longer made. They are up to at least H7 now. It's okay. I'm not happy about the color balance. However, I heard better things about the later versions. I intend to move up to a dslr for my next one. There are many good point and shoots now. Check out http://www.dpreview.com/
