2005-02-16: Phalaenopsis

This is the fourth time this orchid has flowered off the same stalk.
You can just see the three stumps from the previous inflorescences
(two behind the stake). I haven't had much success with orchids.
Sorry for the clumsy photoshopping to remove the background.

Closeups:

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM
1/125s f/4.0 at 65.0mm iso800 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I'm impressed with your green thumb as well as your PS skills. Great combo.

Beautiful! The black background really sets off the color.

Very nice composition, and I wish I had this much luck with my plants!

This is beautiful and how lucky you are to get so many blooms. You'll have blooms on this until Easter.
