      Impossible to pronounce, all the more beautiful. Is the exif correct? Is this photo taken 10 years ago? Posted 14 years ago

        Yep. 10 years ago. I'm working my way through my back catalogue of images. Might be finished by this time next year. :D Posted 14 years ago

          Actually, a constant stream of small batches of uploads is exactly what I'd like :)

          On a side note, you just got promoted to Bullet Ant. This means your votes have more influence, but also that you can now do social tag editing. This way you can tag untagged images or correct tags from photos you did not upload. Use it with joy but care.           Posted 14 years ago

      Umm, this photo was taken over 15 years ago. I really can't remember. It may have been in Scotland, or it may have been on Richmond Common. Does it matter? Just enjoy the beauty. Posted 9 years ago

        It matters because Ferdy has created a number of features related to the countries where pictures were taken and some of your photos are not "mapped". It would be nice if you could set the country for them:

        I recently photographed some Rhododendron growing in the Strandja Mountain so I was checking to see if there are any other photos of the species and the distribution range, that's how I got to this photo. Here's how the distribution looks like on another species' page:
