Leaf study. This tree gets a flower that looks like an orchid.
Pink geranium.
Wild raspberry leaves.
Lamb's ears (again).
Japanese maple.
Milkweed.
I got a new lens for my camera and played around with it last evening. Sorry to be boring you so much lately with my photos. I think I either have to move or buy some flowers since I have photographed everything I can on my property. Guess I will do the latter. The soil should warm up with the nice weather that's coming.
I can't believe it's almost Memorial Day. Time for some hot dogs, hamburgers, and watermelon. Are you celebrating at home or going away? North, south, east, west...home's best!

Just found you on Twitter and love your blog. I too cannot believe it is almost Decoration Day.
We will be going to the cemeteries in honor of all those who have passed and having a family picnic in the back yard afterward ~ Burgers, dogs, watermelon, and of course potato salad. :-)
Your photos are beautiful one can never have enough of these beautiful specimens!
Have a wonderful day,
~ Rebecca
I never tire of pictures of Webster! And I like your leaf study too!
Your photos aren't ever boring at all! I always think to myself how beautiful they are and make my own photographic attempts look so amateurish in comparison. These plant close-up shots are so full of life and like entering another world--like they could be in a book (called Rosemary's Garden)
We have a party to go to Sat. evening this weekend(sadly, a going away party for a friend deploying to Iraq)and Rachel will march with her school band in the parade on Memorial Day in the morning, and but otherwise--I am staying put at home(plenty to do in the yard and if the weather's good--a hammock to lie in)
it sure is warm here....almost 90 degrees! two days ago we had frost. i will be making st. louis ribs, potato salad and cole slaw for memorial day. not sure yet what dessert will be....red velvet cake? maybe i will churn some ice cream! enjoy your holiday!!!
I agree with SarahB-how could one ever tire of pictures of Webster. And, I love the pictures of your yard. So, keep on snapping!
:)
I love your photos! I wish I'd had you AND your new lens as I visited Butchart Gardens this week - check out my photos on my blog!
Rosemary these results with your new camera lens are just magical. And yes, I'm in agreement with everyone else, I never tire of your photos, they are always exquisite.
