NCOS Paph Forum

OK, so please, please, please forgive the quality of photos...in 2007 I ha no problems with this camera. Then came the WOC and 200 of 300 pics were blurry. (i screamed, cried, threw a sh*t fit) I thought maybe I screwed something up on the settings and maybe I still did, who knows. For now Ill blame it on Eric rubbing off on me. <snap!> Just kidding. So here are a few from todays Paph Forum in DC. Got to meet Ernie today, I clerked on his team; a pleasure. You gotta come out for the SEPOS show at Longwood Gardens. YOU ALL DO!!!!


Two Fritz Schomburgs were awarded...you can see them in the phrag shot. the lighter got a 77 and the darker a 81 (there abouts).

this Franz Glanz got a HCC (glad it was pulled it was nice...big)

This tiny little thing got a ribbon, why bother bringing it, really....

Thanks for the beautiful pictures. I especially like the last one. That is a monster.

 

[SlipperFan]

I agree. I can't read the tag -- is it Ruby Slippers?

 

[Scooby5757]

Im pretty sure that it was Fliquet. Id be amazed to see a Ruby Slippers that big.

Whose Fritz Schomberg's were they?

Thanks for the photos - when's the Longwood show. I'm starting to think about traveling more. At least on the Eastern seaboard.

Yep, met Scoobs on Saturday. I was tame since I was visiting the National Capital center. The thing in the milk crate was a Fliquet. I had issues with the Fritz Schmburgs (HP Nortons plants) because they both had a TON of spots on the flowers seemingly from being misted then exposed to bright light causing pinhead-sized rings of brown, dead tissue. Anyway, it is what it is- otherwise they were decent. Averyanov's lecture was very nice as was HP's. Missed Dennis D'Allesandro's because we were still judging.

Also met Nancy, Carol, and Chuck in Pittsburgh.
