Comments on: It’s Greening Up http://www.thejoyofhome.com/2008/05/its-greening-up/ Hello--my name is Janna! I am a Christian young woman, finding joy every day in my home, my family, and my Savior.

The camera I used to take all the photos in this post is a Nikon D80 Digital SLR. The lens was an 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 zoom. It's a wonderful camera! But I'd sure like to get a nice, long telephoto lens -- like 250mm. I was just reading in <a href=http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Secrets-Natural-Portrait-Photography/dp/158428045X/ rel="nofollow">a photography book by Douglas Box</a>, the 250mm is his favorite for taking portraits. But I wonder how much a lens like that would cost! Maybe I'll head over to Amazon.com to find out... Hello, Lindsay!

Those first 3 look so nice near each other to top it all off. And that pansy seems to have so much personality. Do you mind saying what kind of camera and lense you use? My camera broke, so I'm left to using my mom's rather simple digital one. I'm hoping that the next camera I get will blur backgrounds as well as yours. You take such nice pictures!

I especially love the Bilbo Baggins pansy -- just the name alone is enough to make it endearing, even without that delightful little "v" at the bottom. Now it's my turn to be jealous of you, as the weather here is already hot and sticky! :) Enjoy your beautiful (if belated) Spring. Yours in Christ, Shannon Lovely!

It's hard to believe your Spring is this late even though I know it is. We have full green and all sorts of Spring blossoms. You have such a beautiful insight on all things created and it gives me much hope to see it come from someone so young as you. There are several "lifetimes" between your age and mine. Thanks for giving hope to us older folk. I have visited you site only recently and do enjoy it. So from the Sunny South (rain today) I say keep it up. Ms. Dale Your pictures are so beautiful.

My favorite is the beehive one. It's not as pretty as the others, but... To me it represents hope. The hope of blooming flowers and bountiful harvests. I have so enjoyed your pictures!
