			 Hello everyone, 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	I have been asked to give a presentation on bananas at Mercer Arboretum's "Tropical Symposium" this August. I have many good photos of my own but am seeking permission to use other's photos as well. Jon (pitanadiego) has graciously given me permission to use some photos from his Banana Basics presentation. I will give full credit in my presentation to anyone who allows me the use of their photos for this educational class. Thanks in advance!  |

			 You're welcome to any of mine, Brent.  I can send you unwatermarked copies of them, too.

			 Does anyone remember a post of several different varieties of fruit from last year?  I distinctly remember it having some beautiful blue Ice Creams and some Praying Hands in the photos.  It was from a fruit stand somewhere overseas-possibly in India or somewhere else in SE Asia.  I'll keep looking but if anyone remembers this please let me know.  
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Thanks to those of you have have granted me permission to use their photos thus far.  |

				Re: Photo request
			Oi Brent, feel free to use any of the crap on Cultivars from my pix album. Just make sure your sticky fingers don't leave too much goo behind.
