Spring is Here

I should be working on my Power Point slides for class.  My yard has been blooming like crazy and I just wanted to share.  The hyacinths are going crazy right now and I wish my camera could capture the scent.

This picture was taken at 6:42pm on 3/21/12.  ISO 100, flash used and f 8.0.

This picture was taken at 3/21/12 at 6:41pm.  ISO 800, no flash and f 4.5.

I am still trying to grasp how all of these settings work together.  I was amazed at the difference in the two pictures as a result of the camera settings.
