Yesterday, while Mike spent the day mulching our flower beds, I decided to try out this camera-thing. I really want to learn how to take great pictures and of course, Mike is already a pro. I just walked around the front yard and snapped away.
First off, does anyone know the name if this kind of tree? It is in the corner of our backyard and I LOVE IT! So beautiful and I want another one!
We have ONE tulip in our front yard! So sad...I don't know what happened to the other ones!
Pretty bushes and sprouting hostas...
Fun with rings!
Off to brunch to celebrate Ali's birthday. Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend! It was beautiful and sunny in St. Louis and now it is supposed to rain all next week :(
keep it up, the best way to learn is to practice your butt off. Shoot every day and read a lot on the internet. Love the pretty blooms down there....don't worry, it's rained here all weekend and it's in the 40s, plus there are still NO tulips at all up here. Enjoy it!
Great pictures. I believe your tree looks like a dogwood. You should see the pink ones too! =-) They're native to Missouri and very hardy.
aww those ring pictures are so cute!
Cute pics....I am 99% sure that is a dogwood. :)
Yup, it's a dogwood. It's Missouri's state tree to boot. Awesome pics! Tulips are LOVED by squirrels, they dig them up and eat them. Your azalea bush is gorgeous too.
Have a fun bday dinner!
I'm jealous that you have a dogwood in your yard! They are gorgeous!
i am jealous of your dogwood AND of your rebel!
I am jealous! I want a new camera now. :)
i have two dogwoods in my backyard and LOVE them. they almost seem to glow around sunset when the light hits them.
Great pictures!!!
LOVE your pictures and great job practicing. :-)
