Paul, I would agree about having a digital camera. It's really freed me up to take lots of pictures and learn so much more by doing so. The hardest part is remembering that the delete button is my friend. Hilarious!

I have to go with our local hybridizer Joe Ghio, who has been under-recognized (IMHO) in the TB awards category. This is 'Brouhaha'.. notice the lavender, diamond dusted edges on the standards, and how the deep violet edges of the falls fades as it goes towards the center. There's a nice bright orange beard to top it all off. I think this one is a masterpiece.
The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.
