Playing With My Camera

 This picture of the squirrel is nothing new except that when I took it I was on the ground and he was about 4 stories up in the top of a tree. 
 Nice to be able to capture crisp, sharp edges.
And I was standing up on the creek bank and shooting this about 50 feet away.  It's the water running under the ice.  Very chilly day here but at least we're on the other side of the Winter Solstice and heading toward the sun.  Hope you had a peaceful day.                     Diane

Gorgeous shots, Diane.
I like to think your way - we are over the winter hump and on our way to longer days!
