Aerides jackiana
Aerides jarkiana. Usually I'm trying to capture flowers at their peak of "openness" but these unopened buds were so shiny and remind me of little duck heads.
This is image is a stack of 7 images in an attempt to get the flower buds in focus while blurring the background. If you look at the image closely you can see a lot of artifact from the process. In general, it does an amazing job but there are limitations to what it can do. The problem is that in areas where there is a flower bud in the foreground, the in focus image of the flower bud in the background has this blurry blob of the closer bud along its margins.
