Cemetery Flowers

As you may have noticed my Picture a Week postings have slacked off.  I’m still taking photos every week but the processing and posting fell behind.  I plan to stop the PaW postings but keep up individual shots that I like now and then.

The following image was taken at the Dublin Cemetery in Dublin, OH.

Camera specs; Canon EOS Rebel XS fitted with a Canon EF-S 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM lens, f5.6 @ 1/100 a second, ISO 200 at 38mm.

Taken at the Columbus airport while waiting for my return flight home.

Camera specs: Canon EOS Rebel XS fitted with a 75-300mm f/4.0-5.6 lens, f6.3 @ 1/100 seconds, ISO 320, 300mm focal length, hand held.

I felt it fitting after this weeks Spotlight post on wildlife photographer Steve Creek to have a wildlife shot of my own.  Not on the scale of Steve’s work yet but I’m still working on it.  My wife and I took a drive through Lake Fairfax Park and spotted a group of deer grazing in a field.  Unfortunately I spooked them early and we didn’t get many shots.
