This is my entry for Gardening Gone Wild "Picture This" photo contest . The theme is...Macro In A Mason Jar. I had a lot of fun trying out different items for the background and contents inside the jar. For my entry I used a wet, heart shaped rock inside a pickle jar and placed it on top of smaller rocks. I selected this one because I thought it looked like a rock dropped in water.
Speaking of water, I have good news! My son fixed my camera. He completely opened up the frame of the camera and managed to dry it off and then put it in a bag a rice overnight. I don't have an expensive camera or I would never have let him open it up and experiment. He told me he could do it and he did! :) Way to go, Will!
Also, thank you for all the nice comments and suggestions in my previous post concerning my camera mishap!



There's no place like Austin, Texas! In this gardening blog, I have tried to focus mainly on native and adapted plants for Central Texas! I think it is the true secret to a successful garden in this great state!

Great job on your macro especially with a water dunked camera. I like the smooth stones effect. Great job.
Great photo, Amy! Glad the camera is working again. Although I quite like your artwork too - very cheerful! :)
