I would think female collectors are rare, but I could be wrong.

Default rare....

Renay is rare........ in good ways all around!

In terms of female collectors, I've been in the hobby since 1976 and I would agree that at shows, online forums, that it is rare to meet a female sporstscard collector. Maybe they are just shy?

I had a shop for many years and I'd say that my customers were 95% male, 5% female. I had a few but not many. They all were passionate about the hobby and knew their stuff!

Peace, Mike

I have photographed many day lilies over the years. My favorite is the golden chalice calla lily.

Day lily Brisbane City Botanical Gardens November, 2002. Another image from this shoot is a giclee above my dining room table.

That is gorgeous Michael, love the frog! Nature is so interesting ... finding a shot like that must be akin to finding a rare card!

It is always a pleasure to photograph nature up close. I had just photographed a snowy egret in that park and was walking around. At first I thought it was a leaf until I got closer. I once went to Fiji just to photograph orchids from Raymond Burr's collection in the Garden of the Sleeping Giant.
