I went to the marsh to take pictures and I forgot... wait for it... my camera! Luckily, I had my tiny backup camera with its macro lens in my purse, so it wasn't a total waste of time. #wildflowers #nature #flowerphotography #naturephotography #photography #swamprosemallow #ironweed #blackeyedSusans #mountainmint #daisies
