And only a glimpse it was! I have a couple more Peru picture books..... In those years I still took pictures with my regular print camera AND shot other "stuff" for easier sharing with the digital.
Btw regarding cameras in those days, this Kodak camera had a whopping 1.6 Megapixel resolution. And it needed tons of batteries!
I think I learned a lot by walking through this garden and see the surrounding slopes and could not only see how these plants grow, but I got a bit of a feel for the climate. Nowadays when I see these type of Masdevallias in nurseries, my mind sees and feels this habitat.
