Hi Sharon & Bob! The variety of species of orchids is mind boggling! These are all so exquisite. The very last one is almost like the one I have blooming right now. Just slightly different in color and mine has some spots. I can't believe it's still blooming! Great job with these beauties!!!! More hugs! Jane

Hi Sharon & Bob, Another beautiful album from the Missouri Botanical Garden. There are so many varieties and colors of Orchids. They are such an amazing variety of flower and very much among my favorites. Wonderful album & beautiful photos. I ordered a 50mm - 500mm lens for my camera. I can't wait until I get it. It should open up a lot of new shots for my albums. I read your email and want to send one in return. I don't want you to feel that you have to keep these going. I know you and Bob have a lot going on right now. Enjoy your grandson & thank you both for sharing your beautiful photos. God bless, Ray

OH Sharon, this Album just made my heart sing! I LOVE orchids, my very favourite flowers! When we lived in Singapore I had 5 kinds growing outside on the balcony. They would bloom sometimes for 2 - 4 months (the same stalk!) and always looked like a friendly little face was greeting you! And the Orchid Gardens in Singapore was outside in the tropical landscape - a wonderful place to spend an afternoon. This is a fantastic exhibit giving a great sampling of the incredible array of orchids available and thank you for taking such trouble labeling the varieties! have a great weekend! Marita

Hi Sharon, I haven't got to view them all, but so far this album is one of the most beautiful I have seen on orchids, you have even out done your last one, I think, and it was a phenomenal hit. Get ready for this one to be featured. Greetings and hugs from, OKLAHOMA. Susie
