A pity that nobody seems to find interest in this picture. True, it is not a work of atrt, but it fits nicely in the concept of this site.When I was in Cornwall the Eden Project was still in its creation status. I'll go back to visit it though,.

It amazes me that so many people dismiss nature, and plant life so readily, sometimes I don't think they even give it a second thought. I love your picture for the life in it and for the efforts made to preserve, and honor the life support of human kind. So many don't know the beginings of their sustenance. Thank you foe showing there's hope, and for the web site address.

A fine shot Roland from this very interesting place. Not been here myself but I do think you have included essential details from the place, not least the special glass roof which should be the mainpart of this "green house".

Ah now this is really nice. A miniature climatic zone within a dome...great idea and this photo shows it very well. I like the structure of the dome with the supporting spars in hexagonal shapes. We have a biodome here in Montreal which represents 3 different climate zones and the wildlife and plantlife supported within them. Unfortunatly I haven't even visited this yet - I would really like to go to the Eden Project though when in the U.K. some time. The blue sky and white clouds make the picture so nice and light and the colourful clothing of the people shows off really well. Well done.

Nice composition - I like the tree and the curve of the dome, but is it a little out-of-focus?
