Fort Williams – Cape Elizabeth, Maine
More fun with the new camera – combo of macro, zoom, and playing with the ISO/aperture. (This was after work, so the sun was starting to head down in the sky, and the light was definitely different.) What I love about this camera is I have two custom setting available on the setting dial,

Coastal Maine Botanical Garden – Trilliums
The last time I saw forest wildflowers at the CMBG was before the Children’s Garden had come into existence, so I was very surprised and pleased to run into the trillium bed in the back corner of the Children’s Garden. All of these pictures are from there, except the last shot, which is
