I'm going to our orchid show (http://www,mobot.org) with friends on Friday - looking forward to it!! Your shots reminded me of the show that I had completely forgotten about - thank you!!
PhotoPro- make sure your memory card is empty! I could have taken 100's of photos. There were so many entries this year, and each bloom is both beautiful and unique. I only kept around 50 shots, and probably won't ever edit them all ;-)
Thanks- and I was just using my old point and shoot Minotla Dimage digital camera, not the digital Rebel. It does a very nice job on tight close-ups ;-)
