Raider Bill,
Your camera seems to be focusing beyond the subject.  You either need to use the close-up option on your camera (macro), if it has one, or back up some to give the distance finder a chance to get the subject in range.   You can then, usually, make the picture bigger with judicial cropping when you print it or upload it. :)

Looks like Virginia. I've seen it in that area in my travels.

Bill, the focal point is at least 4 feet from the subject in order to get a fuzz free pic., with micro it's around a foot or so. ;)

Was 75F today and very dry (14% RH) with wind. Your dozer fire reminded me of this, and it's high fire risk right now with all the dry dead weeds in the undergrowth. I don't see many scratching at the fields yet, but they could because the top of these fields by the house is powder dry.

The second unknown, the green leaf on the left, sure looks like dogwood.  The arcuate veination is obvious.  The pic on the right, is that dried leaves or is it fruit?  I am consternated on that one..........

That was what I thought about while getting the burning dozer out of the woods. I would have hated to be the cause of a forest fire especcially if it was mine.

I'm told there are many dogwood trees on the property but I wouldn't know a dogwood if it bit me.
Yes those are dried leaves whatever they are I have hundreds of the trees they are on. I hit areas where that was all there was and going through it was snowing tan leaves bad. There were no green leaves on these trees but when I broke a twig it was live and green inside.

My camera has been dropped too many times as I used it for work. I have to tap it a few times to shoot.
