Picked up my new toy from the post office this morning..... EF-S 17-55mm IS f2.8....... and very nice it is too. Nice and sharp wide open, plus the IS is handy too - collecting lenses is becoming a bit of an addiction, although saying that anyone want a Sigma 17-70mm ;-)

The wild grapes tasted pretty good but they had big seeds.

This leaf fell into our bird bath and I thought it looked lovely in the sunlight, Taken with the Tamron 90mm macro lens.

After two hours in the sun this leaf was still frosted.

This one was pictured in the woods. Not sure if this is some insect secretion or the leaf is getting sapped out by an insect

I went on a 45 minute trek in the woods behind my house on a sunny and warm January day. This was one of the last pictures I got.

Honeycrisp apple leaves show leaf mottling. This is a physiological problem of the cultivar. This is not a disease or insect problem. There is nothing that can be done except to let the tree continue to grow.
