Over the past few years, I’ve found myself apart from my camera more than with. I missed the old days of the Weekly Winners with Lotus. I recently tweeted this fact, and she brought it back, twitter style…so I’m hoping that gets me back friendly with my good old Canon. For now I’ve committed myself to once a month, but hope that one day it will become far more frequent.
This week, I’m taking you to Epcot.
But I’m not talking rides and countries and the big ball…I wanted to get into the details of Epcot. I wanted to get beyond the tourist and into the awesomeness that is Disney in the details. All of these were taken with my Samsung Galaxy S8.
And just because…one obligatory “see the ball from across the pond” picture. It was a nice day, sometimes you have to do it anyway. 😉

This week, I’m taking you to the Circle B Bar Reserve near Lakeland, FL. My eldest and I went on a little hike there shortly after I moved down. Unfortunately, we had to share the zoom lens, and all of my actually good photos came when I had it on…so I don’t have as many as if I’d had my lens all along.
Anyway, enough of my jabbering. Onto the photos…

So I checked as I did this – it’s been two years since I participated in Scavenger Hunt Sunday. Hard to believe it’s been that long. Life has been crazy, and my camera has been sorely neglected. I am hoping this is the start of more regular use again.
This week the hubby and I went on a nature hike at a local park. 3 of the five shots were from there. Another was on my drive to work, and the last when I re-discovered my cheap lens add-ons and was playing around.
All taken w/ Canon Rebel XS.
1. Up
Sometimes you must look down to look up.
2.Fruit
There was no fruit to be had in the cold weather, but there was plenty of sap to be had as they were hosting a learning activity involving sugaring.
3. Neighborhood
On my way out of the neighborhood, the foggy morning and sun shining through it all called for a picture.
4. Smile
On our trek we stumbled upon this log that looked like a smiling dragon.
5. Photographer’s Choice
As I was playing with my mock-macro lens, I managed a decent shot of my fish, Edgar Allan Poe’s scales.
Bonus Shot:
I was going to use this for up, but I liked the reflection shot too much…but as I loved this picture of the mourning dove (pigeon, really)…I’m throwing it in as well 🙂

One of my absolute favorite things to do is to head to the zoo with my camera. I love photographing animals (when they’re cooperative. My dog, for example, is not). Some of my favorite photographs of mine are of animals.
So when the family finally made a trip to the zoo recently, I was all too happy to take along my camera for the ride.
As always I took way too many pictures, so I’m splitting it up into a couple of weeks. I’ve got a lot of weeks of pictures to catch up on, actually as I’ve been way active with the camera, much like I’d planned. And trust me, I’m not complaining about that.
Now, onto the photos from the zoo!
Stag Beetle.
Hiss
Orangutan in the sky.
Timon.
Kiss-Crossing SeaHorse
Soaring.
And that’s it for this week!  More to come next week…considering I get my camera back out 😀

Continuing with the storm pictures from a couple of weeks ago. Most of these are from the local park, along with a couple of my never-ending cloud pictures.
What? I have a thing for clouds.
Anyway, onto the lot of them.

 We had a heck of a storm system blow through Indiana.  While my house suffered with some flooding in our crawl space, I was able to get out and snap a few good pictures of the aftermath.
A walk in the park and some cleanup around the house found me a few good shots that I’m happy with.
Enough shots that this is going to spread out over a couple of weeks, I think.
