Photo excursions

Apart from watching Malory Towers, this week I've been experimenting with the new Sony (Minolta really) compact camera with an an example here of "against the light" photography braking most of the safe laws of photography to capture the backlit leaves.

Here are a few blooms taken from a  tree that was fully out at the time while I was taking a unit of exercise staying within the limits, enjoying the sight and smell.
If they look a little sharper it's in part because the sensor resolution is just over twice as much as the Canon had, capturing more of it's wide ranging zoom lens.
