Greetings from a new (snowbound) member ! Male
Default Greetings from a new (snowbound) member !

I've been enjoying this board for some time now, so I thought I should join and say as much ! Thanks to all of you who share your knowledge and answer questions with such care and patience.

I've had a few orchids around the house for about 10 years, and have added new ones fairly regularly - miniatures lately because of space concerns. I have several racks of fluorescents, and am considering a terrarium for the office.

I'll try a picture (I hope) - a perspective not often seen.

Hi Rob...welcome!

It's nice to meet you, and I'm sure that you'll continue to enjoy yourself here at teh OB.

I too am wondering what the photo is that you posted. The perspective sure is unusual.

For those who asked, the picture is an electron micrograph of Pleurothallis grobyi - one of my students took it. I'll try to post a larger version and one if its pollinia.

thanks Susanne. I have a few more like this - is there a particular place I should post them, or would it be best to put them on a photo-sharing site and post the link ? I see some size limitations here.

Most of us use a great resizing program, found here along with some tips for posting :
