Which reminds me of a promise.... MtD, any progress? Or can anything be done (temporary) at the end of my postings, and when the Teakdorians have come up with a few 'bits 'n pieces'? ![]() | |

| Thanks for the info. The website on Orchids will be very useful. Big descriptive pictures. Looking forward to seeing your weed photos. What type of camera and lense do you use. I think I will need all the help I can get to take pictures of anywhere near as good quality as yours! |

| Nan | Thanks for the compliment, but I'll have to pass it on to the 'subjects'. These beautyqueens are there all day long, growing, flowering, sending out fragrances and sometimes even smiling, making sure they get noticed and be photographed. Camera's nothing special. After years of dragging around heavy and bulky bodies, lenses and extra gear, all I wanted was an "all in 1" with a good lens. I bought a Sony Cybershot DSC-F 707. Served me well over 50.000 pics. Followed up by a Sony DSC-R1 and still used today. And since a few months I'm also playing around with my new toy, a Panasonic DMC TZ7, a very versatile 'point & shoot' camera that goes everywhere I go... If you want the details, click the following links.

| Nan | Thanks Propagator, trying to take care of a garden but at times i feel more of a professional weed-collector. I'm glad the rainy season has passed and the growth rate of those ugly, nasty vines, "things-that-grow-a-meter-a-day" have slowed down a bit... Time to relax a bit and start taking pictures again.... |

| Hi Gypsy I think image 310 is Abutilon x hybridum Ashford Red, there is also a golden form. Quite popular now with municipal planting schemes in parks and gardens as summer bedding plants. I like the image of the agave no 375 showing the pseudo barbs along side the real ones. This is plant trickery making the plant less palatable to animals without spending precious energy producing many real barbs. |
