Just an ordinary weed

Hart's Basin 03

Wandering Around the Shop

I have to admit that I am in a wonderful part of the world to find interesting things to photograph.  I tried taking a photo of a tiny weed but it was to fuzzy.  I will take my magnifying lens to work tomorrow and try again.  I have made a promise to myself that I will not buy any expensive lenses until I have conquered the one that I have.  The little screw on lens don't count because they were not that expensive.  

Harts-Basin Birds

I have asked myself what the reason is for my taking pictures.  I know that there are so many good photographers out there and I am such a rank beginner.  My goal is not so much to become a great photographer but to learn how to see beauty around me.  I have spent so much of my life in a happy little world of my own.  I want to see what is around me.  It is my hope that on my daily trip to work I will be able to see things that I have been missing. Today I noticed a pair of birds on Harts Basin.
