Photo on DG

Isn't that a lovely updated picture on DG site, located way ontop of the site... Im wondering who took the photo of the bird sitting on the branch of the red/orange flowers? Also the photo of the front entrance of the house picture is very nice as well....

GardenGuyKin took them both :) Aren't they lovely?

Thanks again!

Dea

Yep, they sure are... ((Tks)) for sharing the info about the photos :)

PaperW, there was a contest for the banners in the Photo forum.
The winning banner was #49.
You can see them all here.

Thanks PaperW, Happy you are enjoying them. Here is a pic in the plantfiles that I submitted

Now you know what the flowers are. I was just fortunate enough to have my camera at the right time to catch the moment. I can't tell you how many times I said I wish I had my camera.
LOL
Well, my wish came true.....

Thanks Dea! You are so kind..... :)
I must Add that Everyone submitted Wonderful Photos!!! We not only have a Friendly and Talented group of Gardeners but Photographers as well.

(((Thanks)) Sarah for the link information :)

YW, GardenGuykin.... it's really a magical lookin photo.... I think, I may have grown that type of flower before? But, the name slips my mind... it was grown from blubs.. I'll just have to take a peek at the link you typed out... (tks)

I agree with you... when I go out to garden... I know, I should bring my camera along, but tend to forget...that's when.. I usually miss snapping a shot of the Geckos darting across the wall or on a plant ....

Thanks again for the chat and all the great information :)

crocosmia, one of my favorites!

Those were all sooo good! How often does the banner change...or not at all?

Aimee, The 'Management' is changing them Seasonally on a "Trial" basis.
It started with Winter, I think. Search the Photo forum.
The contests were fun. Members posted pics in a thread then a "Voting" thread was set up with thin slivers of each entry. (Sort of anonymous, LOL)
Paulwhwest did all the fancy stuff.
