some Heliamphora photos

[mikewilder]

Hello,

I moved my entire collection from Portland, Oregon to Baldwin county, Alabama this year. The recent hurricane emphasized how precarious my collection is now. So, I decided to take a few pictures.

Beautiful! Heliamphora are some of my favorites to look at, some day, I will get one! For now, thanks for letting me live vicariously through you, those are the biggest Heli I've seen yet!

Thanks Mato--it's too bad you didn't make it out to see my 3d movie:

Whoa, what? Mike, I actually own that dvd. Very cool to know you made it. My only problem is that I can't seem to see things in 3D.
