Screature
Yeah good detail in low light - the horses in the background stay reasonably crisp even in late golden hour. - the lights under the edge of the roof really enhances the shot. Very evocative of a lazy tropical end of day.

Another orchid in bloom - this is Prosthechea Baculus, in the same family as Prosthechea Cochleata but much larger, and it is heavily fragrant. I've had this plant for 26 years.
I um... didn't even know this one was going to bloom. Watering my plants this morning I noticed its familiar & very welcome scent in the air and ta-da, hello flowers.

Another beautiful orchid shot Doug. How large is your collection and how long have you been keeping them?

I have been growing them for about thirty years but my fascination goes farther back than that. Right now I have about forty plants, way way down from over a hundred and fifty about two decades ago. Not enough room and not enough time for that many without a greenhouse these days unfortunately. Maybe one day...

Wow that is quite the commitment. I would think that with even forty plants you would need a greenhouse.
