    A tiny little flower. My husband said it looks like a monkey.

    I agree about the monkey........ at least from a distance.

    Nora, I'm really loving your photos, and the size is perfect for viewing. Could you give us the dimensions you resize to? I think I'd like to start using something along the same sizes when I post. Makes it a pleasure to look at, without overwhelming the thread when we go back to read other replies.

    Hi Anne,

    I have re-sized that to 350 (pixels) wide and 272 height (InfranView).

    I always use this dimension in InfranView:
    width 350
    height 359

    And here I would have said "space alien". Wish I could get my scaphs to bloom -- years back they bloomed effortlessly for me
