VickyH-

Can you remind me of what type of camera you have? And what do you use as your photo editor?

Thanks :)

Teresa_Rae - I have a Canon Digital Rebel Xti and a Canon Powershot Pro1 (those pics are a mix of the two). I use Picasa (free download from Google).

This is a nice thread mbw1024, I kinda thought about making this thread back when I saw the critter thread. I was going to do a "bizzare plant thread" since I find them interesting to photograph :)
Here's my contribution...

A flawless pink Habiscus. It was near the National Park building.

And this one had a bee of some sort in it (Hard to see).

This is the coolest tree I have ever seen, a sandbox tree (I later learned)

And, I have no idea what this is, but it was thorny and bizarre, I found it on the Cannel bay-Lind trail.

mbw1024,
Hmmm... it's been 2 years now, I don't remember exactly... but yes, now that you mention it, you've jogged my memory and I'm almost positive that is where I took the picture. Well done!
I saw a few along the reefbay trail as well. But I checked my pics and didn't take any from that trail.

Here's some more pics. These weird creeping cactus were on the caneel-lind trail too, very cool...

These were some landscaping plants around our Villa that I liked. This one here reminded me of the Crystaline Entity on Star Trek :wink: (I'm a dork :lol: )
