Another orchid

[finnbay]

Finally had a chance to get the dogs out for awhile today, and found this small purple fringed orchid about a mile from the house. Didn't have much time as I could hear a storm approaching. Grabbed some shots and picked up my gear and almost made it home before I got wet.

Canon 40D, 100 mm 2.8 macro, ISO 200 f/2.8 @1/125 silver reflector held underneath the flower

17-40L mm ISO 400 f/4.0 @ 1/200

Uh, Ken, wanna help out a poor orchid photographer with free time tomorrow and a purple fringed-orchid void in his portfolio? E-mail away . . .

Nice images, man!

[finnbay]

Figured I'd send you one anyway. Email's on it's way!

Nice. The background in the first makes that orchid just pop!
