Thanks to everyone who has left comments and encouragement on the previous submissions, I'm glad you are all enjoying these! This on was in the cool house, which was an airconditioned glass house... a great relief in Singapore's very hot and humid climate. I think it's some kind of spider orchid.

More images and prints available in my Deviant art and Redbubble galleries.

This image is part of my Orchids of Singapore calendar!

What a variety of color and parts this one has. It seems like it is using those long petals to each side to balance itself. It makes me wonder what it's various parts contribute to it's continued survival and which are just for our sheer enjoyment.
Amazing flowers. Thanks for this lovely series.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes
