Orchids Photo Gallery by Artichoke Vinagrette at pbase.com

Orchids

my parents have been collecting orchids for about 40 years & almost all are from our collection
most of the orchids were done in a studio using a single SB28 flash with reflectors with the more recent using as well umbrellas and a second SB800 on TTL with the SB28 on A mode using an SU4 as a flash triggered slave
more recently I have added a Sigma ring flash for studio & field work

Wow! You have done a superb job with these images. I don't know an orchid from an arachnid; the photos are art! V

Your Den formosum is not the species. They frequently are referred to as "formosum type". If you Google Den formosum, you'll see that formosum has a yellow throat and wide white petals. There are many hybrids with the orange throat and narrow petals.

Your Den New Guinea coould be the hybrid Den Miva Abracadabra or some hybrid using polysema. And your bracteosum album is pink and obviously not album.

A very Outstanding Gallery you have some real talent

Pat, you are correct, it is indeed Dendrochilum filiforme the ID has been fixed

Pat		05-Oct-2007 16:55
Pleurothallis linearifolia 08 isn't a Pleurothallis but a Dendrochilum. I think Dendrochilum filiforme. But very nice pictures !!!

Wonderful Gallery! You have done some really nice work here! I remember now that you were one of the first people ever that was kind enough to comment on one of my photos on DPreivew, it was of an Orchid you found to be paculiar. Loved the gallery! Mark

I use both a black background & Photoshop I carefully select the black background and then fill in pure black using a simple action I wrote that applies a feather as well

Thomas		01-Aug-2003 06:46
Just wondering how you got the black background, using a background or photoshop. I have several orchids that I would also like to take.
