Hello,
thank you for the nice comments.
@ Loakesy: The Heliamphora is normally in my terraria, so the cats (I have 2 of them...) have almost no chance to destroy any of the plants.
@ Jan: I'm using a Nikon Coolpix 3200. It is a good camera, but sometimes there are problems with the macro. I also found that it needs much light to get really good pics. You can see it on the pic of the D. falconeri. The pic was made in the shade, and it is not looking so well as I wanted it.
Regards,
Markus

Thx for the info. I have a Nikon Coolpix 2500 and its good for macros but does not work great in bad light, too.
Now I bought a Panasonic FZ5...cant wait for its arrival! ;)
