Real lapis? :o

Such a beautiful blue, and the adult's sleeve in the photo is the exact same shade!

My eye also inevitably went to the fig in fruit as well.

Yes, real lapis. (I asked) Lapis is a 'non-precious' stone and not that expensive, they may have been given a good deal given the illustrious setting of where it was to be placed...la Mosquee de Paris. Sadly, it isn't there any more.
another photo,

The lapis was a beautiful concept.
That's a gorgeous true green in those leaves.

Okay ~~ I wasn't trying to be all artsy in the pictures below, merely attempting to photograph the takeoff from Mexico City in a heavily vibrating airplane. (they came out pretty, though, didn't they? :D)

My favorite commercial pun. I assume everyone can tell what's sold here.

Great picture, Imec. You took one homely little element and made a profound and elegant picture with it.

Those are all nice, Bixa, but you'll be getting very few colorful flower photos out of Europe for a few weeks still.

Thank you, but look what you and Imec have done with your respective gray and whited-out landscapes -- really thoughtful and imaginative.

Thanks, Imec! Lovely photo, Paris. Any idea what the mini-watermelon looking things are?

And here I present: The Thrill of the Frill ~~

The blue is beautiful! Do you have lapis plants in Mexico? :D I also love 'the thrill of the frill', its fresh and glorious green.
