I'm a Better Photographer Than I Thought

As I walked around with the boys, I decided to take some pictures of something besides them. I think these turned out pretty nicely. Yay me!
I thought these were some really cool-looking trees. Neat shapes with the really blue sky.
I love the shapes of the branches. If I was any good at Photoshop, I'd get rid of the stadium in the background.
More trees. Again...I thought they looked neat against the sky.
This is one of the azalea bushes in front of my dad's house. It looks like a good close-up shot, but if you'll look closely, you'll see a bee/hornet/thing in the bottom left corner. The bush was alive with buzzing and as I tried to get closer, one of those hornets buzzed me! I backed up and used the telephoto instead. I still like the shot.
This is an American Holly tree in front of my dad's house. It's at least 50 years old. I've always loved this tree. Pulling off the berries in winter and smashing them on the ground. (Gee...wonder why I have boys!) I want one of these trees in my front yard. Wonder if I can get mine to grow this tall....
