This orchid on our coffee table has been blooming year after year, and I never get tired of taking its picture. This one was shot with natural light coming from a window.
This is my fourth year of taking its picture. The images keep getting better as the orchid matures and becomes stronger, sending out more flower spikes.
Ah, the WONDERFUL phalaenopsis! A glorious orchid, and all the easier to look after because the conditions it likes are the same as those we like. Thanks for this, Hien!

Lovely, my favorite flower. I have been getting them for birthday, mother day, valentine day…but I killed them all. How do you take care of them?
