And thank you for your kind words on my ability!

(635 posts)CaliforniaPeggy, how do you do it? I am impressed.
The flowers and the berries! You must have some warm weather there. We've been having spring-like weather off and on here. Today it's on; tomorrow it could be off. Who knows? That's Michigan!

(154,241 posts)How do I do it? Well, the farmers grow the produce, bring it to the farmer's market and I bring my camera!
California is noted for its mild climate and many crops grow year round. I'm there for them! Some of them might be grown in hot houses, but I'm not sure.
So that's how I do it! Taking these pictures satisfies my soul all the time.

(181 posts)" The calla lilies are in bloom again. Such a strange flower, suitable to any occasion! I carried them on my wedding day and now I place them here in memory of something that has died."....Sorry! I couldn't resist! My Tommy would laugh when I quoted this because I said it every time I would see Calla Lilies. (Katharine Hepburn, Stage Door, 1937)
Great photos, Peggy!

CaliforniaPeggy
(154,241 posts)I suspect that for once, I was the appropriate distance from the flowers. That's really key.
But also, because I'm using Olympus equipment. They are famous for their sharpness. I've never had such sharp, clear photos before. The camera and the lens work together electronically and this is what happens.

(4,546 posts)Inspired by our friend Mousetoescamper I made quite a trek with a friend to catch the spring spectacle. I knew I couldn’t at all do justice to the blazing and subtle displays, so I took only a few souvenir pictures and simply bathed in the beauty. I admire the skill and aesthetic sense of you both and am always grateful for the way you share your experiences and your vision. True artists!
