A flying Bee...

I went to take a few pictures today and saw a Bee flying around the rose blooms. I took several photos of it and then watched it fly around and then decided to take a few of that as well. They turned out amazing. This was taken in my backyard.

Amethyst...

Amethyst, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

This was a big piece of Amethyst that was in the Smithsonian National Museum Of Natural History in Washington DC. I thought that it would be a neat photo. They have a great section on Geology as well as many other exibit halls. This rock weighed well over 500 pounds and is one of the few items that can be touched in the museum.

Exposure: 0.017 sec (1/60)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 35 mm

Before The Fire...

I took this at 8.46pm. We were going to have a fire in the pit and make Smores. The photo was a 4 second exposure. I like the colors that the deck and the little Citronella flare pots give off onto the side of the house. The fires give off enough light to make the chairs have big shadows on the wall as well. We also have little lights that are bordering the deck that give off neat circular light pattern. I used f/5.6, Iso400 at an 18mm focal length to shoot this photo.
