NOTES: all settings are from memory so they may be slightly off this week. I am beginning to see how they work together to produce the images. That alone is worth the time, expense, and effort of this class. Thanks, Al.
Today I saw redbud, magnolia, forsythia, and a row of red maple trees (I think) all in bloom. Everything has buds on it. Weather forecast? Snow.
