I was taking some photos of the leaves of my tree to show to a friend of mine,(my tree is being over run with some kind of bug, they are the little white pods on the back of the leaves) wen my camara was getting all funky on me. not wanting to zoom right and not wanting to focus. I got one good photos of the leaves but the 2nd photo shows why it wouldnt focus on the leaves. note in the first photo, see the lime green blob on the trunk of the tree?
Then something else cought my eye about a foot higher up the tree.
thought I would share this you all.
