Balkar ji is playing a great role in making it popular by representing the group at a recent conference, and again along with Nidhan ji holding a photographic exhibition at Panipat on 16th March, where efloraofindia was a big focus. Thankfully after coming back to India I had a chance to deliver lectures at a few colleges on the Role of Digital photography, computers and internet where I have made special efforts to attract students and teachers to join and contribute. I am happy to note that students have been very receptive of this new approach. Through online power-point presentation I showed them the websites and personal pages to make them more popular.

As per syllabi i asked every student to submit only 15-20 sheets of common wild plants only just to teach them how to press, label and preserve the plant specimens. earlier it was a practice to submit 60-70 sheets whether properly done or not and many unidified. I usually take the student to field tour twice a year atleast one long tour 4-5 days and one short trip for one day. they make their herbarium out of the collection done during these tours generally + some local common plants. I select only good specimen for pasting from the collection of students. As submission of herbarium have a weightage of 5%-10% marks in Practical exam, students have to do it. Above all the good thing is that students are taking interest in Botany now. Going for M.Sc and Ph.D in Botany. This is a good sign for us. -- Regards Dr Balkar Singh Head, Deptt. of Botany and Biotechnology Arya P G College, Panipat Haryana-132103 09416262964 Vijayasankar vijay.botan...@gmail.com Mar 06 09:35AM -0600 Very good observation indeed, Pankaj. Coming back to the color other specifications of herbarium sheet. While at FRLHT, I had chance to digitize few thousand herbarium specimens from various sources. The ivory or white sheets gave better results with even and clear background (this is important to have undisturbed viewing of specimen details, even when zoomed in), whereas, the even slightly dull or greyish sheets produced bad images. editing was cumbersome and when tried to brighten, the specimen image used to get bleached thus loosing its details. When buying handmade paper, we should also avoid the ones with too many visible fibers on the surface, they may be in different colors. So, it is preferred that at least one side of the sheet should be clean white with smooth finish. The size may be between 300 to 500 GSM (needs verification) so that it doesn't bend when woody specimens mounted on them.

I didn't mean to avoid handmade sheets, in fact I prefer and suggest handmade sheets, only thing is that we need to select the suitable quality for this purpose. It may be costlier but, after all, herbarium specimens have to 'live' for few hundred years.
