Re: Orchid
I definately prefer the second. Thats a pretty good photograph. The background is a lot better, and I see an idea behind the composition. Orchids are nobele plants, and they should be photographed with respect ;-) To me the first one looks like just another snap of a pretty flower.

A very nice image. My wife has a number of orchids and they *are* quite beautiful flowers.

Re: orchid
Bob, I'm uncertain if you're saying that because Seminole never signed a peace treaty that they therefore don't have rights to hunt, fish or harvest in restricted areas? Are you saying that this scene is completely unrealistic? Or did you mention the lack of treaty as an interesting bit of information about the Seminoles? cheers, frank "What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof." -- Christopher Hitchens --- Original Message --- From: Bob Sullivan Sent: April 27, 2012 4/27/12 To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" Subject: Re: orchid Frank, The clip is amusing.

Re: orchid
Frank, I think the Seminoles have the best claim to 'We are not be bound by your laws.' The scene isn't realistic, but that's because of the ranger. Regards, Bob S.

Re: orchid
It was very simple. Just took a picture of it on the windowsill :-) The window is south-facing, but it was early morning and the sun hadn't reached round to shine fully into the window but it was bright enough to back-light it.
