Dried flowers

 I love walking in the Julington Durbin Preserve this time of year. All the flowers have gone to seed, but they're still beautiful.

I'm using the macro setting on my camera. The flash is kaput, so I try to keep my hand steady, with mixed results.

If I focus the camera while it's pointed toward the ground, it automatically widens the aperture, so that when I aim it up at the flower, it doesn't take a dark picture.

It's been kinda cold

The good news is that means I get to take some pretty pictures. Saw palmetto, covered with frost front and center and then bonus! colored leaves in the background where the sun was just hitting everything.
