Thanks, Linda. That love of beauty is one of our many connections, isn't it? My P&S did well for me, but I'm loving the new camera and taking it everywhere. Tenzin is learning (slowly) not to pull on the leash when mom stops to take a photo -- I'm grateful for that IS lens!

Thanks, Angelb! I love using shallow DOF. Glad you enjoyed a taste of fall -- I'm looking forward to seeing more of your wonderful summer photos to keep me warm as we head into winter.

Thanks, PhotogChic and shmelly! It was the sunlight that did it -- I had taken a photo of the same little Japanese maple just 5 minutes earlier that was pretty but didn't glow. So glad I was there to see the light change.
