Laura... thank you for your kind thoughts.

My back is irreversibly injured, to the point of permanent disability now. A rough six months, and I have not been able to share the whole story with my DG friends here. But... I keep on keepin' on! One day, one step!

My camera is a Canon PowerShot A630 8 megapixel. I don't even know all it can do yet, but I've had alot of fun with it. I love macro work! I've always thought the beauty is in the details, and that's one of the reasons I love gessies, and especially episcias so much... they have so much detail, and texture, and color!

You should try the episcia 'Kee-wee'. She is durable, big, and very forgiving... episcias greatest sensitivity is to cold... they hate it! They can never go below 50 degrees. They don't much like it super hot either. 'Kee-wee' was my first, and I keep it in an east window, in a clay pot no less!
