Calypso orchid, again
The way I figured it, I would only have one opportunity to get this right. If I wanted a keeper image of the calypso orchid, it had to be today - the flowers were starting to get past their prime. It was another dark and overcast day with a spot of rain, but that only made the flowers that much sweeter. I was able to go down to ISO 200 for a few shots but mostly I kept at 400, not my preferred ISO but I made an exception for this rare orchid and rare occasion. In this image, I used a reflector to light up the underside of the flower.

I am still buzzing about having seen the calypso orchid. I don’t have words to express how special I think it is!
