More photos from the tree in my front yard.  This is the first day I took photos with my new camera and I really just was shooting blind - I did not have any of the menus setup or really know much about the camera.  I have had another session and my results were much better.  I bought a book to go along with the camera and hope it gets here soon.  I really love this camera and I am glad I bought it - was was a little unsure at the time.

Nikon D750. These little white flowers are from the tree in my front yard. They do not last long but have a great smell. The tree is an American Snowdrop.  I got a new (for me) camera. It was used but in mint condition. I have to learn how to use it with the new lens 50MM that I also bought. I just couldn't resist taking a few pics before I look at any manuals!!!!
