Catmint20906 said:It all looks like it's coming along so nicely, Kyla! I like Little Rock--very nice idea. I also am a lavender lover! Very nice photo of the single stem and bloom--I can't seem to get my new (cell phone) camera to focus correctly on a small blossom in the foreground--it keeps focusing on whatever is in back of it. Yup that looks like an aster of some kind. It looks similar to my 'October Skies'--that light blue, almost lavender. Are the leaves aromatic when crushed? I can see the chamomile peeking out over the top! Smiling Yay on that balloon flower showing signs of new life!


Thank you. I'll have to check if those leaves are aromatic. Edit: I just checked and far as I can tell they are not.

One reason I got this little camera - it's the only one I've ever owned - is that it does very well with close up. (I don't think they are really "macro" technically, so I don't use that term. It has to do with percentages and it goes right over my head. Rolling my eyes. )

Even so, it's not always easy to get the right focus. (I don't have a cell phone set to connect to the internet, for various reasons, so can't use the camera.)

I am also only able to line up two pictures, not three, in a post. I am pretty sure it's because my computer is a small screen. The link to the third one always breaks and goes to the next line. So, two will have to do.
