I was feeling really inspired by the writings of David duChemin yesterday, so I drank a bottle of good pinot grigio and photographed orchids, trying to hand hold the camera to a 1/40 sec for an aperture f/11 while chasing some amazing afternoon light. I long to be in Charleston and be back with “The Tree”, but I am still finding amazing things to photograph in my house.
When two friends understand each other totally, the words are soft and strong like an orchid‘s perfume.
I took this photograph yesterday in afternoon light from my wife’s orchid garden. This plant is amazing, it keeps on blooming and never gets tired.

orchids are very sexual………perfectly designed to orchestrate both male and female participation…..better with pinot grigio
