My SX260 Is Back Home Again

After a dear friend was relived of her camera, by her youngest daughter for summer travels, I lent her my new Canon SX260 HS back in May. I had not taken very many pics with it but knew my friend, who has a photography problem like myself, needed it more than I. Her youngest daughter is back from seeing the world. The last pictures taken with this camera by my friend was of her other daughter as she returned from Afghanistan. I hope it served you well!

Now that it is back in fold I will, over the next few weeks, hopefully l get to know it and see what it can do. Until then here a few with the camera on full auto.

I have never seen this insect before and it bugs me.
I think this is a Zinnia.
No idea what it is other than flower. I just liked the way the light dances across it.
A common buckeye moth.
