Digital Camera Images
The majority of the Australian native plants pictured here are growing in the Australian National Botanic Gardens, Canberra.
The images were obtained in November and December of 1996 using a
simple, low-resolution rangefinder style digital camera and modified
using either PhotoEnhancer or xv software. The quality
of these images is not as good as that attainable from a film camera
or a modern digital camera. However, this was the technology available
at the time and it offered exciting possibilities!
Each page provides the scientific name of the plant, the name of the person (or people) who described the plant and published that name, the family that the plant belongs to, a common name and perhaps also some brief notes relating to the plant.
