Blogger Community Photo Challenge: Winter


(click the banner to go to the challenge, read the rules and see all the entries)

Winter in NJ can be snowy one year and clear and warm the next. This year, all the snow we've had is gone. More could come, but for now...nothing. This image is from earlier this winter when we actually had some of the white stuff softening our world.

Blogger Community Photo Challenge: Close Ups



The current challenge is Close ups...and I'm lucky that the Deep Cut Orchid Show took place last week at a location very near me. I went there three out of the four days it ran and had a lot of fun shooting the orchids. They are such weird flowers--some look like faces, some look like aliens...all are beautiful! Here are a sampling of some of my shots with my macro lens. Hope you enjoy...
