spring in virginia means...
dogwoods, the state flower. In this case pink instead of white...these trees are so pretty this time of year here.

Very pretty. How many colors do these come in?

Nice and I have quite a few FD lenses myself an I like them....Rich
Outstanding image, Lance!
thank you one and all for the nice comments. I do like these images. Yes, I have about 7 or 8 FD canon old lenses which I shoot manually on the A7 which tend to give me art quality images...there is little automation in taking sensor data and processing it on the way to storing it that way so you get out of the averaging averages business and can let things that are exceptional with light happen naturally in my view. It is more work to take a good photo especially manually focusing but occasionally you get pictures that are very good. I think the pink dogwood image is one of my favorites I've taken in a long time with any of my cameras. The fd lenses were full frame film lenses and most of mine are 35 years old but work well. I am taking this setup to Colorado in the fall for a week's fly fishing with guide in a drift boat on the colorado and roaring fork rivers and hope to get both landscape and trout shots. Not much is more colorful than a rainbow trout being released......this one was shot with a canon m3 camera in the Yakima River in fall of 2016 doing the same thing as an example and it was not a full frame a7 camera.
