I love the orange shades in the poppy shots. My job started a marketing campaign recently with Nat Geo and Energizer who are running a photo submission contest called The Energizer Ultimate Photo Contest. Just send in your most spectacular photos like the ones in this thread and you can win a National Geographic Expeditions trip for two to the Galapagos Islands. You'll also have a feature in a upcoming issue of National Geographic Magazine. Pictures like these would make for awesome submissions. Here is a site with some examples of pics from prior years, as well as a link for those that want to submit: Energizer Ultimate Photo Contest Thanks for the info...

It looks like for the most part the one in your picture, is fairly use to people trudging around his home. Got that right. You do not want to be bitten by a Green. -- Ken
