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!  Â

I have no clue what it is, but it's gorgeous! When I first saw it, I thought it was something in the horse chestnut family, but on full zoom, all of my hypotheses fly right out of the window, so I'll just say this: It's a pretty thing, whatever it is. This is a great capture. Fantastic details.

Love this picture. I think it's a Cephalanthus occidentalis. Never saw one in person before but this is as close as I will come. Very good.

I was going to say, ah yes it's a Swan plant, but on closer inspection you seem to have found the Golfballis-sideswipeus ! LOL Not really, but kool find and capture Dana and you hit the nail on the head with my post, it was Captain Nemo's Lounge from the Nautilus ! ~Cheers~

C'est vraiment une fleure etonnante et belle... Cette photo est vraiment extraordinaire !!!

Yes, when those little stamens fall off it totally becomes a golf ball! LOL, I always wondered where they came from. Fantastic find and capture, Dana!
