Out in the Garden
Posted by September 10th, 2011 in New Gear

Spent part of the afternoon getting to know my new Olympus E-P3 along with the 14-42 kit lens. The kit lens is not the greatest inside, but outside it shines.  Shots were taken  with either the Olympus m.14-42 or m.40-150 lens.   Below are straight out of camera photos from the E-P3.

Hot Peppers

Hot Peppers, my favorite. I love everything hot and spicy.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes; not a fan.

Bell Pepper

Yummy bell peppers. Next to onions, I can eat these chopped in everything.

Rose of Sharon

I believe this is a Rose of Sharon. I'm probably wrong.

Impatiens

Flower box of impatiens on the deck.

Fenced In

Fenced In – I believe this is a Rose of Sharon as well.

    Saw your link thru Robin Wong's website. Your wonderful photos speaks for itself. You have talent that brings simple everyday objects we normally take for granted to become works of art. Thanks for sharing your pics. Keep that shutter clicking.
