You might spot me at Kirra Beach, the South-Eastern end of the Gold Coast, Australia,  if you like beach walking like myself... but there is more ! My son Jeff (*jif3d*, here at Rendo, it helps to advertise, ooops)... he took this pic of me in 2000, then manipulated it in photo-shop and it's still one of my favourites. Just very briefly about my past... *born in East Prussia; *grew up in Berlin, West Germany; *migrated to "OZ" in 1960, (not the Wizard of Oz) but...AUSTRALIA ! I guess  I was more into '2D' since early childhood, and thinking that my son Jeff may have inherited some of my artistic skills, because he translated them into '3D'. I am hooked on photography, since I discovered cameras... that's it in a nutshell. BTW - one of my fav.quotes.... ** I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure - which is trying to please everybody !**                                              that's a wrap... Cheers Brigitte.

"because I live in your future " Marvellous! What a perfect down under gift for our talented friend!! I used to have a Cereus that produced a flower like this but with pinkish stamens.

I love this! Thank you, Brigitte ... these images are glorious! How marvellous to start early! :) (Bill did a dedi for my birthday one year on the 10th (before we were married), and then had an awful time remembering it's actually the 11th! LOL!) I'm delighted to begin the celebration in what is my morning (and already your tomorrow). With this wonderful start, my future is bound to be bright! Many, many thanks, my friend. :)

Stunning captures of this fabulous flower, it really is a beauty and I'm sure Tara will love the gift too. What a huge size it is too and does it have a beautiful perfume to go with it I wonder. Excellent clarity too.

Oh, I hadn't been by for a while. This is gorgeous. I once had a plant like this...don't know if it's the same one exactly. I remember waking up in the middle of the night, smelling this incredible perfume. I wandered the house trying to figure out what it was, and found a bloom on this plant. It was amazing.
