My wife and I hiked up Putney Mountain last Friday after work. From the top one can see the Green Mountains in the est and Mt. Monadnock in the west. It rests under a popular bird of prey migration path so encountering birdwatchers at the summit is not uncommon. However, on this evening we had the top to ourselves and I was intent on getting a great shot of the fern patch. The camera I brought with me was my Elph. I wanted my shot to focus on a single fern in the foreground while capturing an out-of-focus patch of green behind. My camera constantly wanted to center its focus further away, but after more than thirty tries, I discovered I had my picture.
I had a great time photographing my accordion. It was interesting to shrink my perspective and take in all the particular details on the instrument. What I chose for my collage are the buttons and keys, but I took pictures of every piece of the accordion, from many angles, and with different lighting. With so many pieces working together, one often misses out on these details.

Great shot of the accordion I like the focus on the shot. On the fern the composition is perfect on the rule of third...and I love the unfocused green expanse on the right!
