I fear I have started an undertaking that will only end with my life, or my sanity, whichever comes first. I recently bought a 1TB hard drive for my computer, and after copying my entire existing hard drive over I started to think about what else I could do to fill it up. So I started collecting pictures of plants. Not pictures that I find on the internet, but pictures that I have taken myself. I have them all organized by family and so far I have over 60 families represented. I have no idea how many genera I have.
Whenever I travel to a new area (which is not very often) I take pictures of all the plants I didn't have pictures of. My family took a day trip to the beautiful mountains of Arizona and I spent a good half hour walking around taking pictures of just about every plant I found - even the weeds - they're plants too and therefore must be in my collection! The growing problem now is finding out what plant I just took a picture of. Even with my above average knowledge base of plants, there are so many I don't know...
