We were delighted to find numerous of these orchids in our local forest - far more than in the past few years - it appears they really benefitted from the cool inclement spring.

Thanks for the visit, have a great WE.

Nice shot Sinuhe, we were searching for similar orchids in Spain, but failed to find them, I think it was too dry over winter.

Hi Chris, pity you didn't find any...Spain is experiencing a severe drought and it's very possible that this is affecting the abundance and proliferation of local flora.

Seems to be a good year for orchids there. I like this one, too.

Nice soft background. I also like the off-center composition. Beautiful greens and delicacy in this one.

Love it esp with the dreamy b/g.
Super minor nit....My eye immediately went to the cut off leaf on the left side...wish there was a bit more space there.
