"Royalty"

Posted by Disoriented (Grinnell, IA, United States) on 21 February 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

I'm posting a few of the orchids that I photographed this past Monday at the National Botanic Garden. Being surrounded by these flowers in all shapes, sizes, and colors is a sight of elegant splendor.

I wish I could identify the names of each orchid. I could have taken a shot of the nameplate since it's a digital camera and film is virtually endless. But I also didn't realize until much later that my camera had a voice memo function. I suppose that could've been an easy remedy as well. As Homer Simpson was fond of saying, "DOH!"

12/24/08: Grading is done. I'm packed and ready to go. I'll be off for vacation in San Francisco for a few days with family and friends. Happy holidays everyone!

KINDA' SORTA' FAMOUS?: I am happy to inform you that my shot of the glass canopy of Kogod Courtyard was featured as a banner for the blog of the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery called Face to Face.
