My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.
Your orchids are beautiful. I started a new thread as it takes too long to download a long thread with pics. What kind of camera are you using to take such nice closeups? Do you use a special lens?
I have the Canon Powershot A80 digital camera. Canon has a wonderful line of Powershot cameras with all the bells and whistles. Mines probably 4 or 5 years old. It has a great micro setting with or without flash. No special lens, just point and shoot.
I was wondering about that too (thanks greenhouser.) I'm still using an old Sony Mavica FD-90 (the kind you put floppy disks in, go ahead and laugh.) It's time to bite the bullet and upgrade. A good macro capability is important to me, and I'd rather not fuss with special lenses. Thanks! Sheri
Thanks for that info. I have an older HP315 PhotoSmart with a zoom lens but closeups are always blurry. I was sure you had a special lens for your camera.
I've got a Canon S3 IS that I really like. It's got an LCD viewfinder that tilts and rotates, so you can preview your photo with the camera at ground level, without lying on the ground. It's got macro and super-macro without changing lenses. It takes nice videos. Resolution is 6 megapixels, which is more than enough. A full-screen image on a typical computer monitor is around 1 megapixels.
So would my chipee. I went out there this morning and he came out to say hi from under my potting bench. Why do they have to be so darn cute. I know I have to boot him out soon. Darn.......
