Hi, I'm Marilyn.  I've been posting here on RR for a few years now and thought it was time to update my profile.  It's been wonderful learning so much from the amazingly talented people here.  I've had the chance to meet many in person and some have become great and good friends.  Starting with a Kodak Brownie camera when I was about 7 or 8, moving up to Instamatics, Polaroids, then the Pentax K1000 that really got me on the way, I've been looking at the world thru a lens for a long time.  Got the bug honestly; my dad was a photographer and gave me the gene!!  Digital changed the world and I jumped in with both feet.  You would've gone thru 100's of rolls of film in one day the way we can shoot and delete all day long.  Progess...it can be awesome sometimes.
At any rate, RR rocks, the talent is over the top and I'm just gonna keep on shooting!!
Thanks for looking and keep those cameras rollin'!!
peace.....marilyn

Are those "hens & chicks"? If so I haven't seen them since I was a kid. Thanks for the memory. Dana P

I'm not good at plant identification but the leaves remind me of an artichoke. One way or the other I wouldn't want to be walking around there without shoes :) Bill

Yeah, like Bill they remind me of artichokes, never seen this before, what is it? Very nice capture, I like the view exactly from above. :)

Very lovely image Marilyn!!! Love those succulent, rosy type of thingies!!! I saw some at the Botanical Gardens when Bruce and I went a couple of weeks ago!

Well I knew our resident Botonist Andrea could name these, she is a clever girl :)..succulent, rosy type of thingies..LOL Carin, you crease me up :) Maz this is a great capture, I love those little flowers, they look like tiny cabbages, good work sweetie.

Ok! Sempervivums (andrea)! (In Latin, that's "always vivid" I think...) A very head-on, active & vivid shot, your grasses & that sprig of leaves are fine companions to those beautiful flowers/succulents. Capturing them to the side gives nice balance to the big patch of grass: It has some of that simplicity you find in Japanese gardens & prints. Really nice work, Marilyn, once again. Always a pleasure to come here...(and I'm caught up I think! Whoa!)

I'mma laughing 'cause that is like my gardens. Great greens here and a very healthy bunch of plants and grass (which is technically a plant too I guess).

Heavens, talk about Greensleeves! I would never step in or on that flora. Lots of textural activity on display in this shot, with the humble artichoke-like succulents on the right side of the image.
