Jeff's Barcelona Botanical Garden Photos [01276172604]
Tiny cluster of flowers ( M ) ( L )
I separated these Barcelona Botanical Garden photos from the rest because I
took so many photos there.

These are some of the photos I took on the Barcelona part of our vacation
back in March.
Photos from Marburg [01274549136]
One of many camellias at the New Botanic Garden in Marburg. ( M ) ( L ) We spent a day visiting Marburg, near Frankfurt, which is a wonderful town with lots of neat old architecture and a fantastic botanic garden.
Frankfurt Palmengarten [01274060121]
Colorful orchid. ( M ) ( L ) The Frankfurt Palmengarten on our first visit in early April. It was the last day of their annual orchid show, so we took lots of photos. I can't identify most of them, but they're still enjoyable to look at.
Photos from the Barcelona Botanic Garden and nearby [01273709741]
Bugloss from the Canary Islands (Echium callithrysum) ( M ) ( L )
These are photos from our sixth day of visiting Barcelona when we went to the Montjuic area, and explored the many gardens there. We spent most of our time at the Barcelona Botanic Garden, which was huge and full of amazing plants, especially the Australia and Canary Island sections, which we explored throughly.
Frankfurt Palmengarten [01271837641]
Goslings sleeping ( M ) ( L )
Here are a few of the things that caught my eye on our second visit to the
Frankfurt Palmengarten
(botanical garden) .
The photos that were the most fun to take were the goslings; I was
surprised that the parents (who were right nearby) didn't take much notice
of me, even when I got within 2-3 feet of their babies! The little ones
barely noticed me either. I took 200 images of them alone, so it was hard
picking just 3 to show here.
Ingrid's Minnesota Photos [01252892825]
Swiss chard ( M ) ( L ) Except for the first picture, the first batch are from our late August
trip up to the Twin Cities. We enjoyed visiting cousins and exploring
some of the sites. Most of the photos are from the beautiful Minnesota
Landscape Arboretum.
The second batch, beginning with the rocks, are from a trip over Labor Day weekend to Omaha's Lauritzen
Gardens--lots of fun flowers, and even some veggies.
Lauritzen Gardens [01252284062]
Moth on flower ( M ) ( L ) We took a trip to the Lauritzen Gardens in Omaha today.
Here are a few of my photos. Apparently I've done about 6600 shutter
releases on the camera I bought this spring--wow!
Minneapolis Bugs and Stuff [01251675328]
White Crab Spider ( M ) ( L )
We took a weekend trip to Minneapolis to visit some relatives. For
sights we visited the Walker art musem and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum.
I found photographic subjects at the Arboretum.

A small yard full of plants ( M ) ( L )
These are Ingrid's photos from our recent trip to Chicago. Photos from the
Lincoln Park Zoo, Lincoln Park Conservatory, Garfield Park Conservatory
and the Sheffield Garden Tour. No community gardens or farmers'
markets--shocking!
Kansas City, St. Louis, and Champaign trip [01240107361]
Mid-air bee ( M ) ( L ) We recently took a trip to Kansas City, St. Louis, and Champaign. Here are some photos from that trip. Sites represented here include Powell Gardens outside Kanasas City, the botanical gardens in St. Louis, Wonmo and Cheongsil's apartment, and some parks near Champaign.

Florida: Mostly Orchids [01235876072]
img_2914 ( M ) ( L )
After the earlier set of non-orchid plant photos, here's an album of mostly
orchids. A few other things crept in, because I can't resist (and because
in putting together the earlier albums I'd forgotten about 400 phtotos
from my second memory card!)
Florida: Animals [01235857247]
Lizard ( M ) ( L )
I'm saving the birds for an upcoming post, but here's a survey of the other
animals we saw on the trip.
Florida: Non-Orchid Plants [01235794422]
img_0212 ( M ) ( L )
Lots of things were flowering in Florida. Other plants were just interesting
even without flowers. I intend to devote another page to the orchids we saw,
but here are the non-orchid plants. Updated 2009-02-29: Added image
titles.
Florida: Bugs and Spiders edition [01235167452]
Spiny orb weaver ( M ) ( L )
These photos are from several days of our Florida trip. Most are hand-held
with a Sigma 105mm macro lens on a Rebel XSi. Many are cropped.
Update , 2009-02-25: Cropped many more of the photos now that I'm
back at a nice fast machine, and revised some descriptions.

Here are some photos from our recent trip to Colorado, along with a couple
unrelated shots of a community crops
garden.
Montréal Botanical Garden [01185205797]
Bee on coneflower ( M ) ( L )
On our last day in Montréal the weather finally cleared it had
been raining for two days straight so Ingrid and I headed to the
Jardin Botanique (Botanical Garden). Unfortunately, we only had a few
hours to spend at the gardens and so we only saw about a quarter of it. In
that time I still managed to get a bunch of nice photos.
Canada Trip 2007 [01184844627]
As we pause in Quebec City, I thought I should take the time to upload a few
photos.
Europe 2007: First days [01177464693]
I've just returned from a vacation in Germany and France. Over the
next few days I'll be putting some of my 600 photos online, roughly in
chronological order.
Photos from my recent trip to Canada [01124916046]
Here are some photographs from my recent trip to British Columbia,
along with Ingrid and her folks. We first went to Victoria, visiting several
nearby beaches and the Buchant gardens. Later we went to Whistler, a ski
village north of Vancouver. I took only a few photos there. Finally, we spent
the last day and a half in Vancouver itself, but I didn't take any pictures.
Ingrid has more photos from Whistler and Vancouver, perhaps she'll put them
online someday.
Canada dinner experience, links to photos [01123908684]
… she actually did. Through time travel I hope to be able to recover the picture after…
