Macro Of One Of My Slipper Orchids
This is is one of my Phragmipedium Slipper Orchids.
They are my favorite type of orchid. This one is a sequential bloomer and had 8 consecutive blooms.
If you look close, you can see a third bud forming
in between the two blooms.
They each last for up to several weeks.
On such a long exposure, you can't even breathe or there
will be movement.
Camera Settings: f/16 - 3.2 seconds - 170mm - ISO 640
Using camera timer, tripod and natural light.
Black Velvet background.
