Catalpa tree.

I looked outside this evening about 8:30 and I noticed the following flower

and it struck me that I should step outside and take a few snapshots.  As I was walking about outside I walked past the catalpa tree I planted years ago and noticed it was flowering.

I never paid attention to the flower before.  It’s amazing what you pay attention to when you have a camera in your hand.  On a side note, I want need new lenses. A friend suggested the following lenses, listed in order of importance.

1. Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G Lens
2. Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G Lens
3. Nikkor 85mm f/1.8G Lens
