Thanks Guys, you're welcome to post a few pictures in the Off Topic foroum and I'll narrate them for you. Just make them backpacking appropriate ones if you would. Of course pictures of my 2 cows, Butterscotch and Cinnamon would be ok <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> I don't have the upload capability <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Shoot... I should have saved some of your pictures to upload for you, but I already sent the box on its way. Maybe someone else can lend a hand. Sorry!

That's ok Eric, eventually another box will make it's way to you and then you can do the honors <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> A photo of 'Hercules' my draft horse would be cool to see <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Glad you all are enjoying the Earthling Adventures and Farm CD <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I'm sure I can handle that if nobody else manages before it gets to me.

Heck, I can probably post 'em all - not like I'm lacking website space <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Phat, why thanks neighbor! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> I think you'll enjoy seeing the sites around Earthling's place. I forgot to ask Eric when he got the Northern Tier box, but I really wanted his opinion on my photography skills <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Well it's not like I forgot what they looked like already! Your floral shots are definitely impressive. Flowers make the perfect subjects. They're shaped with intriguing patterns, they fill the frame with brilliant colors, and each one provides its own unique types of symmetry. They are truly the benchmark of nature’s artwork. The most important part of your photos is that you "see it," appreciate it, and acknowledge it! Great job!

Eric

Here are a couple of my own floral shots:

That's what i'm talking about Eric <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> Coneflowers/Echinecea <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> I have a whole acre of 'em planted mixed in with 25 other types for the good bugs to hide in that do my IPM work in the veggie patch <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> Water lily nice!

Start a thread on photos! One per post though so the stuff does'nt load too slowly for those of us on W98 and ancient laptops <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
