This shot was taken a year ago this week during the pandemic. It made for an interesting day as I was alone with the largest orchid in New York State where normally there are several photographers.

Taking images of wild orchids is a nice break from the more hectic, and time consuming work of photographing warblers during the Spring.

Viewed large shows this beauty off perfectly Warren. Who would have thought of the events that allowed this to be viewed in relative isolation. Nicely done and thought out.

An unexpected and quirky benefit of the awful pandemic, Warren. A beautiful image of this wonderful species.

Lovely how they are clustered together- what a wonderful consolation prize for dealing with the pandemic and isolation.
