Above: This Kwanso daylily got lots of comments on the blog, even though these grow wild on the roadside in Mississippi.Below: I love this photo of a black-eyed susan (grown from seed) preparing to open up. It looks almost alien or something!
I also love this photo of the same flower in bloom. The thing about the Exilim was that sometimes I would get amazing pictures, but it was almost impossible to do so on purpose, or to replicate them.
Is it hard for anyone else to photograph tomato plants with an auto-focus? I must've taken 15 shots to get this picture of a sucker for a post on the blog!
My mom gave us the old camera for a (awesome) wedding present, and we took this picture on our honeymoon in the Virgin Islands. I love the colors, and how the creepy iguana blends in with the foliage!
It was way too cold to play around much with the new camera this afternoon, but I got three quick shots. Keep in mind I haven't read the manual yet!
Above: black-eyed susan seedhead. Below: holly berries (looks better blown up, so click on it!).

It has potential, I think, if the operator reads the instructions!
Stay warm, and stay tuned for a giveaway later this week!

Ginger,
Sorry about the older camera! But I bet you'll enjoy learning to play with the new one that replaces it. Those photo look pretty darn good!
New cameras are fun to explore! I got one for Christmas and have been having a good time trying to figure out how to use different features. It came with a disc...maybe I should play it? Sorry you broke your old camera. It did take some great photos.
RIP old camera but you should have a lot of good shots with your new one. My sister-in-law, who's a professional photographer, has a similar Powershot which she loves. So you know it must be good!
Fingers crossed we'll all have a few plants that survived this crazy weather!
Have fun with your new camera. My old one was the same, good pictures just by luck.
That's a great idea for getting an upgrade. I need to drop my cell phone! Love your "roadside" daylily, too. I'm afraid our roadside plants in Alaska are truly weeds....

Ginger... don't tie yourself with the operating manuals, just go, play and snap. Again and again... and be creative!! ~bangchik
Sorry about your cold weather!
Congrats on the new camera.
You will love the new camera! You just have to tinker with it, take pics on each of the settings, and see how they turn out! I can't wait to see what you do with it! That daylily is awesome
These are all the very beautiful flowers which are in blossom and looking great with all the different colors and lovely horticulture environment.
