Hi everybody,
My name is Dana Pommet and my wife’s name is Josephine. I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1942, and except for a tour in the Navy, lived there for most of my life. I retired to Delray Beach, Florida in December 2000. We love to travel and photography goes hand and hand with that. I went digital about 5 years ago and started posting November 22, 2008. I have met so many wonderful people on RR and that makes this whole process so much more interesting than just posting photos. Thanks for all the comments and keep them coming.
Update  January 2012: After hiding and denying my mild Dyslexia, for most of my professional life, and now fighting with its advancement – I want to thank you all for putting up with my poor typing skills and spelling problems. I know that my spell checker hates me and I now depend completely on audio books rather then actually reading printed books.  Life marches on!  ÂÂ

An amazing plant. Looks like it just came out of the box. I didn't know it looked like this on plants. Thanks. Aloha

Fascinating! This is something I am unlikely to ever see in the 'flesh'!

I've never seen the real thing though we do have a few plants that look like they could be used for the same purpose but with much lower yields. I notice too that there is obviously nothing easy about picking cotton...looks like a recipe for punctured fingers, arms, and legs! Nice photos Dana!

According to the song there should be a Boll weevil in there somewhere, Great shot and as Andrea says not likely to see these so I'll have to settle for cotton grass.

How lovely and fluffy it looks in zoom but I wouldn't like to pick it as there doesn't seem to be rows to go down and I hear that it is very prickly to pick. I'm glad you have made it safely back to Florida.
