Testing out the focus confirmation feature

I'd have preferred a less busy background, but manual exposure, manual flash and manual focus with an extremely active toddler for a subject demands compromises.

Pretty flowers at Lake Como. On a walk with the Tamron 28mm f2.5.

Hallie at Westmonte Park, on one of the first cool and windy days of the fall/winter.

Wildflower by the retention pond near work. Trying out my new 500mm lens.

Not sure what this is.. it was about 1-1/2" long, attached to a tree, somewhat cocoon-shaped, and I think it's insect-related, but all the little tubes are odd. Hoping for an ID!

Centennial Olympic Park, downtown Atlanta. A few days later a tornado ripped through here!

Mmm, Mr. Pibb is my favorite!

Dyed my hair last night. It changes in the light. Like here, it has a red tint to it or other times it's just super blonde. It's supposed to be light brown with blonde highlights or something. I like it though.

A buzzard flew over my house this afternoon, I was able to get a few shots despite using manual focus; buzzards fly quite slowly.

Quite difficult to capture fast moving objects with manual focus lens.

An unfortunate cedar waxwing (Bombycilla cedrorum), one of a flock that flew directly into the side of the reflective glass building where I work. I counted 3 that didn't survive the impact. Sad, such beautiful birds.
