This yellow Orchid is from the show. It was amazing just for the sheer size of the flowers and spike. Its yellowness was not to be ignored. This one was can be seen in yesterday’s post of the Orchid Hut. It is the yellow on the mid-rail and the roof. The flowers on ‘Jiuhbao Gold’ were at least 3 to 4 inches each. When doing close ups it is always easier, for me, to have a larger flower. It can be more difficult to get the framing right but the details often show up better.
This next black and white Orchid is from Hawaii. There were some left over photos from the islands on the same memory card that was used at the show on Friday. There were a couple of good ones so they will probably make the rotation here in the next couple of days.
