Ciao Bruno! Thank you so much for visiting and for your nice words in my All Creatures album. I'm so glad you took the sweet Kathy up on her invitation to you :-) I enjoyed this visit to the Arboretum tremendously - it brings back many nice memories of my visits to Pasadena. I noticed you have 4 albums from the Alps - I must visit them soon - that is my favorite part of the world! In fact, I was sure I had visited those albums previously but when I looked I didn't find any entries of mine in your guestbook - perhaps I was in a hurry. So I will go back and enjoy them again :-) Warm greetings from northern California, Beth

Hi Bruno: What an extraordinary arboretum, so rich, colorful. No doubt you could walk around for hours without having seen "all"! And of course what an attraction for the photographer - and what a chance for us when, as in your case, he is skilled! - Thank you for your kind words in our "Dragonfly" album!!! With best wishes from SW France: Kaethi and Henri

G'day Bruno and it was great to hear from you in my Moore River album guest book. very many thanks for your kind words. I have had a ball going through this album as so many of the plants are grown out here, such as jacaranda, bird of paradise, hibiscus, lantana etc. etc. You have a nice ability with that camera, too and the photos are excellent. Best wishes my friend, Peter in Western Australia

Hi Bruno. Thanks for pointing me at this album. I'll get to number two another day. As usual I love looking at your albums because not only are the photos great the commentary is wonderful. Starting at the beginning (what a strange place to begin. lol)I think the red Ceibo blossums are brilliant as are the purple flowers mixed with white. I don't think I've seen the passion flower before and I always love the bird of Paradise. I don't think I've seen one in real life as well. I love the beautiful orange lantana. I've seen lantana but it musn't have been flower season.The purple hibiscus and the red and yellow lilly are winners too. I think you named the cottonball tree about right. lol. I like the pretty shrimp plant and was it great timing or just good luck with the Siamese twins?. What a great shot mate!. I love the cana lillies, the orchids, the iris and the columbines too. As always, the peacocks are impressive and amongst my downloads is the little waterfall. Last but not least is the goose family in "Full House". I love it. I don't know if you are familiar with Laura (hereslaura) but she has albums about a family of geese and they are a sheer joy to look at. Anyway my friend, I'll catch you real soon. Take care mate. Cheers Al...

Dear Bruno, in my full immersion in these wonderful images of “Arboretum” I was sure to be in paradise, but when the slideshow ended … I was in my home again! How is it possible??? Are you a magician??? I have never seen an incredible variety of flowers than this!!! What a colours, what a beautiful form!!! Dear friend, thanks and thanks again for your lovely and flattering comment on my featured album and for this incredible trip in your enchanted world! A big hug. Simona

Dear Bruno, it is really difficult to find the appropriate words to speak about your Arboretum. Just a few days ago the wonders of the Joshua Park and now a totally different setting , gorgeous trees, flowers, blossoms and the lovely inhabitants of that beautiful place you had the opportunity to visit.. The legendary quality of your photos, the composition , added to them the wonderful and funny captions makes this album again a thrill for everybody in general and specially the lovers of what nature offers to us, in this case all in one place to enjoy and marvel. I had occasion to visit this place but never could produce a perfect album like yours. I am envious in the good sense, you are a master and that is that! Now lets go to chapter 2 which must be another "gobsmacker& quot; as our dear Aussi friend Al would say with just cause. Congratulations and warm hugs, katja
