view with new camera
2 Comments
This is another photo with my new camera. I think it gives me a slightly wider view than my old camera. Today is a very snowy day and we have a couple inches of fresh snow. Its taking me a while to get used to my new camera (Olympus Stylus 720 SW). I have trouble with the lens cover, which closes every time I turn the camera off. If there’s any moisture on the lens, it then smears when I turn the camera on and doesn’t focus well. I think…

Here’s one of my first photos with my new little camera. It’ll take me some time to get used to it. The first thing I notice is the colors don’t seem as nice as my old camera, but I’ll need to try it in different lighting and subjects to really compare. This photo is unedited, except for a little cropping.
bare January garden
I was really hoping to see snow on my garden 3 feet deep by now. We have a cold rain today. Maybe snow flurries tomorrow. aerial views of my home vegetable garden
garden photos from 2006
I’m getting tired of taking lettuce and carrot pictures (that’s about all that’s left in my garden now), so I picked out some garden photos from last year and assembled them into a composite. I’m working on my seed order this week and its almost ready to go. I have to remember that I only have at most 350 square feet of garden space. I can’t plant everything… Edit: Well, I over estimated my gardening space. I got out my tape measure and it turns out my garden beds are…
first snow on the garden
Just a dusting in our area. My dad says it looks more like powdered sugar than snow. It lasted about an hour.

Skippy’s garden photo show
I have a new toy. I put some pictures at Flickr. You can view a slide show of my garden growing at: Skippy’s slideshow. Its just 7 views of the garden from above that I’ve taken over this past season. I’m also trying to learn HTML by the trial-and-error method, so please excuse the odd blog formats. Hopefully I’ll figure things out soon.
This is a journal of my vegetable gardens. Skippy thinks the garden is his, even though I do all the work. We're located near Boston, in USDA zone 6. I have bees, chickens, fruit trees and berry bushes, too. I use all sustainable organic methods and strive to grow all of my family's vegetables myself. -Kathy
