Dan, How are you. Re: this bromeliad...it is from a "pineapple" family of plants and not quite sure if it is a succulent, but it definitely is not a cactus to my knowledge. Then again I could be wrong except for the name of it..."aechmea faciata".They are sold at the local nurseries here in New York. Very popular plant for 2004. Best....
Bill

Dear Bill, this close-up composition is fantastic. I like this delicate colors and this fine spiky "leaf". Perhaps I would try to capture this blossom without the green "basic" leaf. Congratulation for this outstanding work.
Regards, Gerry

Thanks Linn, Nice of you to stop by again and always appreciate your comments. Here is a bird's eye view of the "aechmea faciata". It isn't that sharp as the f2 and hand shake threw it off. -- Bill

Morning Bill I love these flowers - I call them "pineapple flowers" :-) Did you take a macro of the centre, from above? Makes the most interesting image :-) Linn
