All fine here 'Di. Great Photos by the way.

Something i havent yet mastered on the digicam, macro photography. Either too close, too far away or i cut of half the flower!  :-/. never mind I'll get there.

Oh Di!  They are absolutely gorgeous!  I must give orchids a go.  I have always believed them to be hard to grow, and almost impossible to get them to flower  With colours like that, I just have to try!  They are delicious!
