Hi Sharon, Well, I'm glad :-) It seems you can't go anywhere in AR and not learn something! I'm glad you liked the pics, Sharon - I hope you have a great week to, my friend!
Girl - You're rockin' with that new camera! Terrific shots of the baby cones!!!!!!!!
Debi
Such great close-up shots of the budding pines. We don't have the ponderosa ones here, so it was nice to see something different.
Thanks Debi! I have driven by these trees for 13 years in the driveway -- never noticed the cones..... That camera allows me to look for things to see! It's very fun. I'm glad you stopped by tonight, Debi!
Hi Jim and Maria, I think that is one of the best things about AR - we get to "travel" around and see different things. I sure do appreciate you stopping by, I'll have to come see what going on in SC on your post!
Mary - The cool thing is, you can see so much more with the camera - a whole new perspective when you zoom in!
Debi
So beautiful! I had a couple of Ponderosa's on my property, never knew that about the red and yellow! Thanks for the view and the sex ed lesson! =o)
Debi, that is so true! My next purchase will be a telephoto -----I should probably get the wide angle, but I think telephoto could really "ZOOM" up the photos!
Hi Ann, Thanks for your thoughts, I think it will grow big! and I think it's going to be a beautiful baby! LOL!! Thanks for your thoughts tonight!
Hi Cheryl, I never knew why the logs and the windshield were all yellow... then I found out about the pine pollen!! Isn't nature interesting!!? I appreciate your comments tonight Cheryl!! You're welcome about the birds and the bees... or is that the cones and the trees? LOL
Good Morning MaryRedFeatherConeHead....Isn't that the truth, when you run around with your camera all of a sudden you see things in a different light. These pictures are just lovely as is the lesson on the male and female coloration. I didn't know and was thinking you were playing around with your program. Thanks and have a great week.
Good morning Gail!! That is so funny, I was trying to title this, "something Conehead..." but I couldn't figure out a way to use that in the title! You're right, not only a different light, but then you get to say what the heck is that?? LOL!!! Thanks for your thoughts today Gail, I appreciate that!
Great photos Mary! I didn't know that about the male and female pinecones being different colors. Interesting!
Have a great day,
Anne Rains
When I grow up,I want to be able to capture amazing shots just like you. You will also be a great Director of Photography for directors. I will call you up whenever I need your help Mary-LOL. Also I stopped by because I don't know if you have read this blog Active Brad wrote about HGTV looking for real estate agents and home buyers since they are coming to your area

Great post.
Hi Anne, thank you for your comments today! I'm glad you stopped by and hope you have a great day, too!
Hi Lanre, LOL!
Lanre, I am just beginning to learn how to photograph, so the Director of Photography sounds very grand!! Thanks for the link - that would be a blast, and great exposure for Red Feather Lakes, too! I appreciate that Lanre. Have a wonderful day, and thanks for stopping by!
Hey Mary, Wow, pinecones, I would have never guessed. For a split second the red ones looked like strawberries. I love all the neat things we learn here on Active Rain. Too cool!
Hey Sandy, They do look good enought to eat, don't they?? I'm not sure about that, though! I agree with you, always something new to learn here on Active Rain!! :-) Thanks for coming by this post Sandy, I appreciate it!
Mary,
Those are such great shots. You've captured the color and their fullness so well. :)
Steve
Thank you Steve, coming from you, photographer extraordinaire, I take that as a great compliment! :-) Hope you have a great week!
Thanks Ann - since you can breathe again -- don't come here yet, the pine pollen will be spreading soon!
Mary,
Those baby cones comes with a great splash of color! I did not know about male and female cones having different colors for the Ponderosa Pines. Thank you for the info and the beautiful close-up photos.
