Wonderful pics, thank you! I feel me at the mountains near my garden.
Cliff, do you grow Ranunculus glacialis?

Cliff,
I'm out of words and suitable expressions to describe your pictures and the glorious landscapes and plants on them...  :(  Flabbergasted comes to mind, as to how I feel being confronted with your "work" !  8)
Brilliant stuff and thanks again for sharing !

Luc, your English is fantastic-do you speak other languages apart from English, Flemish and Dutch?

If I may speak so, it's for me just the same.

We have in Dutch a good word for it, Luc. It is : overdonderd  or otherwise sometimes: perplex..
And for the german Forumists it might mean : entgeistert

But, as we are in an Oversea-Forum, we better use English words, but they are often difficult to find for us,
isn't it?

We can never be accused of only speaking about plants on this Forum, can we?  ::)

A friend who lurks here was asked by her husband why on earth she could spend to many hours reading about plants... she just laughed and said that plants were only half the fun of this place!
 I quite agree!

Well....you are all gluttons for punishment, so I will rub a little more salt into the wounds with Images 41 to 50 of Gallery Fifteen....

Thank you all so much for your very kind comments (even if I couldn't 'quite' translate some of them).....you were probably saying; "Cut off his damn fingers, we've seen ENOUGH"!!
