Initial post 29 SEP 17 by Charles Quest-Ritson
There seems to be some confusion among the photographs uploaded to illustrate Cannes Festival [Meilland, 1951] and Cannes Festival 83 [Meilland, 1983]. The older cv is yellow; the more recent one is amber or peach-coloured. Is there an editor at HMF who has the power to transfer pictures between the two, so that each is correctly illustrated for the future?

I can do that Charles, if you tell me exactly which photo is which. I have neither rose so would need some help here.

Sorry, Patricia, I didn't see your reply. The 1950 cv is yellow; the 1983 cv is more apricot.

This is not the first time that I've come across pictures on HMF that are wrongly named. Please can I refer them to you for correction in future?

Charles, any replies to comments automatically generate a HelpMeFind email notification that someone has replied. If you didn't see my reply, you are not reading your email.
I did ask for exact instructions as to which photo was incorrect. Repeating your statement "The 1950 cv is yellow; the 1983 cv is more apricot." is not really exact.

'Cannes Festival' 1951.
I presume you mean only David Elliott's photos are correct, and all others are the 1983 rose? (Cybe Rose's 1953 photo is not yellow!)

'Cannes Festival' 1983
I presume you mean yours and vale denis are correct, and Davide Dalla Libera's are the 1951 rose?

Yes, Patricia, you are quite right - 1950 cv is yellow; the 1983 cv is more apricot. But I did not get an e-mail notification for either of your e-mails - nor one from Behcet Ciragan that he sent the same day. Do I need to do something to my HMF registration to receive notifications in future? Charles

PS How lucky you are to be sailing into springtime roses just as Europe sinks into autumn. Sometimes I think I should spend 6 months in each hemisphere! CQ-R
