Fredders Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Thanks guys I was pretty happy with the look of the display and there was a nice variety of plants for most genera and some very nice rare plants at the show too. There was probably about a dozen of the usual crew that brought plants to display which made it look so good. It'd be great if a few more people that lived close bothered to add to the display. I don't know if some people are too scared to bring their plants or just aren't interested? The camera that I took these photos with is a Panasonic Lumix DMC TS3. It's 12m underwater proof, shock proof, has GPS etc. And takes some nice photos for a compact, it's not the best compact but pretty good. I took it to Borneo with me as a small camera that I could keep in my pocket, be completely waterproof and take general snap shots of Borneo and the plants.
