  Hi Robert, Lynne and Karen!

Great to see you guys! Thank you for the kind comments. Glad you like it!

They were so beautiful in my eyes. Shining in the sun. :) My original that is stored in my lap top seems more sharp and shiny. (?!) They were stunning in person, too!

beautiful, congrats Laura!! Yes, I saw Avatar, and yes these plants you photographed remind me of the floaty little magical things in the movie. Very very nice. You are such a good photographer.

I have to say, I love how adventurous you are with your photos, and creative with the editing, but you are BEST at your true photography, in my mind. Just capturing great images. You have the "eye".
