Hi y'all!

Hi guys -

Nice forum! I have been growing for about 20 years, and currently I grow in south Florida. I am a keen hybridizer, and currently work with warmth-tolerant Oncidiinae, Cattleyas, Encyclias, and hybrids thereof. I am also a semi-professional fine art photographer, and a veterinarian. Thanks for the help, in advance!

Hi Brian. Where in Ft. Lauderdale is your practice? I'm from the Parkland area with a Bishon, a not-too bright Persian and a Catt. eating calico cat. Do you happen to know Pete Langone, also a fine art and fashion photographer in the Ft. Lauderdale area? Small world.....
