The Orchid Show at the New York Botanical Gardens

Hi ho all. I've been, like, out in the sun! I've crawled out from under my safe, safe rock of an apartment to see life and whatever.

Thus, pitchers! I went to the Orchid show at the Botanical Garden in the Bronx. Yay! Here's a teaser:



The rest (I'm Orchid!Spammy) are behind the cut.

They are bee-yoo-tee-ful! :)
Thanks :-)
Oooooooooh. Gorgeous!
Thanks! How have you been feeling, btw? Thinking about you...*hugs*
Thank you. *hugs back* :)

I'm feeling fine.
Those are beautiful. And by the way, I'm pea green with camera envy.

Are you okay from all the sun exposure? You didn't spontaneously combust or anything did you? :D
It's actually about 2 years old. I bet you can find it on eBay (or somewhere similar) used really cheap. It's not really fancy, either. It cost me $400 back then, but it's not an SLR or anything like that.

And wow, I saw the sun! I have been seeing the sun on the bus in the morning now since the time changed, but I'm still getting home when it's getting dark.
Beautiful.....
Thank you! :-)
These are amazing!
I love flowers and gardens and... yeah, I think you knew that already!

Did I spy a passion plant in there?
:)

Thank you... it's like getting flowers delivered, except the cats can't eat them, or drag them all over the house!

:)
Thanks! Yeah, I have the same thing with Butternut. It's like she can sense when any type of greenery comes into the house! Mom brought over some palms for Palm Sunday, and Butternut was on a mission to get her little lips around them!

Butternut!

I just love that name!
Awww...

*bg*
Those are just LOVELY! Thanks so much for sharing them with us!

Great shots you took of them, too! *g*
Thanks so much!
The colours and shapes are fabulous. I always think there is something alien about orchids - especially the way the flowers last for such a loooong time. Great pictures. BTW Rhyme can I have a link to your Alex/Mulder slide shows?
Thanks
They're both alien and kinda perverted, too. Hee.

You're looking for my Action Figure Theatre!

Thank you! I'm going to give a performance of these at our next local fan meeting. Of course, it won't be you and it will be delivered in an odd accent but I'll give it my best shot!!
I'd love to hear a report about what people think! And remember to remind them that I'm not quite as crazy in person. ;-)
Absolutely stunning. Your photography has always impressed me, but these are just outstanding. Thanks for the pretty! :)
Aww, really? Thanks so much for the lovely compliment! It really is the camera.
Beautiful!

Is it the camera or the photographer? :) You did a great job capturing the beauty.
Oh, it's the camera. The inly creativity I'm using is where I stand when I shoot the photos! :-)
