Glad to see you join! I think we have one other member over your way Someday, would you explain for me (and others) "Russian Federation"? I have licensed photos for distribution in the Russian Federation and am unclear as to what areas that includes.

Yes Orchid Board is great with lots of helpful people. Russia is a very unusual place to find people interested in plant life. Do you have any orchids, even one is a great start? They would probably be very hard to find in Russia but there are ways if you really want to. We do have another Orchid Board member from Siberia and he has a great set up. He is really to be admired for his enthusiasm under such extremely difficult circumstances.

with everything.
