Ron,

Your photos always give me hope. Hope that orchid perfection is achievable. Hope that some day I can have a collection that's beautiful like yours. I'm constantly and consistently blown away by your pics. Great growing! I've never seen one like this with so many blooms. Just gorgeous.

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for such kind comments. I try hard and you have to remember that you don't see the failures.

Often people think that we have polar bears in Finland. I can tell that we do not have any those bears.... only common bears, but those are very rare, never seen one ...

No polar bears? What a disappointment.

But there are Reindeer

I spent 3 months living in Finland as an exchange student a million years ago. One of the best experiences of my life and gave me a life long love of travel and cultural exploration. I have also been back a couple of times for business and holidays over the years.

Would love to visit. Our family roots are there (in part).
