The Orchid Show

This morning I joined a couple of friends at the Annual Orchid show.  These images are not the best technically.  I had to use a high iso in order to avoid using flash, and even then the shutter speed wasn't all that fast, so they may not be totally sharp.  I hope, though, that you can see how beautiful the flowers are.  I even succumbed and bought a house plant.  I'll enjoy it till I leave for NY, then my hostess will inherit it.

Gorgeous!

I had a dream last night that I went to Hawaii! It must have been because of you! But in the dream, I forgot my camera!!! So it was actually more of a nightmare! Who would want to be in Hawaii without a camera???

Linda, Great imagery of flowers. I like how you really got close and cropped the 2 pairs of orchids, 3 in a row. Jeff Perkins
