My widowed son has found a new interest since he returned to his hometown. Seeing his efforts from last year beginning to reveal themselves he is eager to get started again.
Spring is definitely here in the South. One day's worth of bugs caught on giant flypaper hanging below outdoor light. Seniors have been given stay-at-home orders here (I think ), so there isn't much else to photograph. (Flies on top half are printed on the paper)
A couple of pictures of the full moon last night on smartphone camera. The outline of the moon was very distinct, but came out blurry in photo. I tried a lot of different settings. There were clouds here, but no pink rings. A bit disappointing.
The last picture that I took was an experimental one. My phone has an option for “portrait mode”, which emphasizes the focal point of the picture, and makes the background blurry, like you might see from a portrait studio. I don’t often take a portrait, and hadn’t had any reason to try it, but since I wanted to take a picture of my iris in bloom, I thought I would test out the portrait mode, and I am totally impressed with how the picture turned out. I will definitely be using this again for other pictures, where the background is not important.
