The TG-7 camera works well for these kinds of images except for the fact that I have to be able to see the composition in the LCD  and that can be difficult in bright sunlight.

My biggest issue is that while such images are OK, and others like them, I would prefer to be working on a longterm environmental project if I could.  I would like to work on stories that have a purpose that lead to a good book project.

I started out making pictures like the one above for filler blog posts, but now it is all that I seem to do since I no longer travel far and wide.

I’m still looking for other ideas that I can pursue close to home that are in the shade like this fern, while I think about the coming hot weather.
