Unfortunately, the painter of this image was not printed on the back of the card. What a pity, since I like this one.

Flower
It took me a bit of researching, but these are orchids. They looks very different from the orchid in my room. I'd like to have a plant like this one, mine never has more than one or two flowers.
Hello Kitty
There's a haiku printed on the back of this card:
Entranced by the koi,
I did not hear you approach-
won't you walk with me?

Russian folk costumes
These traditional dressed come from the Ryazan region in Central Russia. Thanks, Olga, for this interesting insight on Russian culture.
Poppies
I'm a huge fan of red poppies. I don't know where this photo was taken, but I like it.
The quote, by the way, is from the bible.

Fashion design
The sender of the card told me that they used to make their own clothes as a child. This postcard fits the theme very well.
Strawberries Number 3
I've been thinking about starting a strawberry collection, just because I seem to receive cards with them quite often. This one is nice because it has an unusual shape.
Guppie
Does anyone here speak Dutch? Could you please translate the text on the card for me? Something about a fish swimming fast, as the sender translated, but that's all I know and my Dutch is not good enough to understand the second line.
Greeting Card
This is actually a greeting card, but since I received it through Postcrossing, I decided to include it here. Plus, it looks nice.
The Miracle that brings us together
This beautiful image is called "The Miracle that brings us together" or "Ime mis meid ühendab" in Estonian. The artist is called Navitrolla and I'm very happy about having received this card.
