(Ok, I took this one the other day but I think its a great pic!)

All I can say is WOW! All great pic's, and that first one is a real winner for sure! Darn hard to get a picture of a hummingbird actually sitting still long enough to take one.

You have a nice selection of veggies to enjoy. I'm jealous as you have ready to eat corn already. Never seen the Dearbol peppers before, a very interesting looking plant. Are they a super hot pepper?

Thanks, Blurose!!

Thanks, Bills! Everyone told me the first pic was great, and a couple even told me to post it here, so I decided to listen to em. Tell me about it! Those things move so much, but I did manage to get a pic of a pair of them sitting on the fence the other day. I also got a couple of one flying around my Zinnias. They are all over this year! Thank You. From what I heard, they are super hot. My aunt's uncle tried one and he said it was really hot, no one else has eaten any. I've picked tons of them, but no one wants em, haha.

Thanks, Chicken_Boy. Umm... I'll have to ask my grandma. I left that one at her house, when I flipped it over it had a huge worm in it. You can see my post on it in the Pest section.

Thanks, Barefoot! I just picked some corn today, and I cant wait to try it! That other ear I let my grandma have, and she said it was delicious. The watermelons are holding out on me! I want to try one so bad, but they are taking their sweet time to ripen,lol.

Thank You, Dace. I really appreciate that. I love photography, and I feel that a garden is one of the best places to take photos. I really love my Macro Mode, which I used in the last picture. It takes clear close ups for me, so I just stand there and take 10 or so pics of one plant. I pick the one I like the best and keep it. Its really fun to try different angles and stuff, so I really enjoy it. I pretty much look at something and say, "Well that's cool" and take a pic,lol.
