Today's Joy: The Batavia Orchid Society Show. Reader, there is nothing more nourishing to a spring-starved soul than a trip to the orchid show. Stepping into the building was like entering a land of the lush & exotic. I couldn't get my camera out of the bag fast enough! Everywhere we looked, there were strange and beautiful flowers in every size and color. Oh, how we oggled!
While Aunt & Mom perused vendors and soaked up myriad tips on raising these rare beauties, I photographed the wide variety of orchids on display: Lady Slippers (Paphiopedilum), Cattleyas, Dendrobiums, Miltonopsis, Oncidiums, Cymbidiums & the trusty Phalaenopsis. All in all, a great day! Here are a few of my favorite shots from the show. For more highlights, click here.
