I use the auto fix sharpen a wee bit and crop.I cant seem to create albums that dont require the viewers to create a password and sighn -in.I dont like that.Smile box is my choice for albums.
What kind of camera do you have Allison?
Mine skrews up reds at times.Its a small Canon.

reds & blues are tough.. need just the right light to come out right.. not too dark out.. not too bright..

it's an Olympus e-volt 510 .. that one is not made any more but you can still get it online at certain stores

I love that I don't need a tripod to zoom in on the hummers.. the image stabilization works great

I used to carry a Pentax coolpix.It was easy to handle but wore out in a season,between being wet and dirt.
I nearly bought an expensive one just to get the great macros but decided against it because it would get the same rough treatment and I wasnt about to toss $300. for a one year camera.

It amazes me on how many different beautiful blooms you ladies can get into your gardens! More variety than any local nursery I've ever been in.

I love your pics Allison! My sister Karla used to literally sit for hours to take pics of the resident hummingbirds in my house in Brazil.. the pics are old and in paper but amazing... the pics of mama humming feeding the babies are really gorgeous... I feel in love after looking at it...
I have not seen any yet... ohh so sad... I am not sure my feeders are working by they are empty after a day! well hope to see them!

The daylilies are starting.. really pretty... thanks to Celeste and I have really pretty ones... Thumb of 2012-06-25/kassiap/07fcc4

Hurray! Allison. You know, I love it when I send someone a plant and they enjoy it, actually when they even plant it, LOL.

I have my first bud too. It won't be long.

The Lily Garden has a new strain of hardier crocosmias, Yellow Lucifer, and Orange Lucifer, and I'm a gonna get me some. Not available until spring, though. I even asked.
