Thanks to an anonymous patron of teh artz, my camera set-up has been greatly upgraded. So thank you, kind anonymous patron! Today’s photos were all test shots, to get a feel for the new equipment. I can now sneak up on butterflies and bees, which makes me happy.
Black Locust
As I was walking around the older part of the cemetery, I kept getting whiffs of something sweet-smelling. I couldn’t figure out what it was, because none of the flowers growing there were strongly scented. I finally figured out the smell was coming from a flowering locust tree behind the church.

Flame-leaf Sumac
The weather has been absolutely gorgeous the past few days. Some of the trees are beginning to turn (sassafras and flame-leaf sumac are the first to go). I’m a little concerned that we haven’t had enough rain to get really nice colors, though. If it’s too dry, the leaves will turn straight to brown.
