I love orchids. If you have followed my blog long enough, you will already know that. However, as much as I love orchids I don’t always like it when they are manipulated to suit a market.
Yes I know that my Phalaenopsis orchid has been modified to make it a plant that is adaptable to living indoors, and I can accept that. I don’t like it when plants of any kind are changed by making them ingest coloured water, in other words – dyed. The result is so false.
Having said that, they still make interesting photo subjects.

I have just posted some, take a look.
Will do. See you on your blog.

Thanks. Still don’t like the colour of the flower though. Prefer them in their natural pink and white.
that’s what makes you real and me abstract 😉
Very cool photo!
