A pet peeve of mine has been seeing many pictures on the internet labeled “Silene nivea” which are actually Silene latifolia. So when I found these two species growing about 5 ft apart I decided to take this comparison picture. I tried to search for some that were closer so I could get a more “natural” side by side comparison, but could not find any. So I picked the non-native Silene latifolia which preferred the drier, higher topography mowed area and brought it next to the native Silene nivea which preferred the lower topography among the wet-mesic prairie vegetation.

Now we've gone into the next realm, I don't have any idea what I'm doing. What can I expect from this part?

For chocchip :) Hope this helps

I brought my carnival glass insulator down for them to see. They seemed to enjoy that.

The glove on the hood I got to see the rubber inside.

4X5 vs. Digital. I know I'm comparing a old D70(only 6mp) to a 4x5 piece of film...but still...no comparison in quaility.

The image to the left, intentionally post darkened except for the circle toward the center (which is the subject on the right image), shows the maximum area that can be focused. The image to the right, shot from the same spot and with the same subject focus, illustrates the maximum zoom.
