Since I love pansies these orchids always catch my eye but they are not as common as other types. Here's some info from Wikipedia: "Miltoniopsis is a genus of orchids. It consists of 5 species, native to Costa Rica, Panama, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Colombia. They are named after Lord Fitzwilliam Milton, an English orchid enthusiast. Miltoniopsis's common name is Pansy Orchid." I added a touch of Orton to this one.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967

They really do look like pansies Kathy - looks like an orchid "disguising" as a pansy - very unusual and quite beautiful - Great Capture!!!!!

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

For some reason, I see "Yosemite Sam's" face when I look at these Kathy.
Good shot.

They look very beautiful Kathy and the colors look wonderful. The dark background makes them look even better.
