Only Orchids
I love orchids and have about 40 of them I'm trying to keep happy and blooming in my home and office, but mostly I like the challenge of photographing orchids wherever I find them.

Display "Gardens" at Royal Flora Ratchaphruek
The corporate display gardens are located in a large shed with steel supports and a concrete floor. These display spaces feature a treasure trove of orchids and tropical greenery. The displays areas are probably about 10'x10' and at least as tall.
It is easy to get lost in the details of the plants - many of which are miniatures -- that hang from faux branches, trail over fountains shaped to look like natural waterfalls and ponds, or populate the man-made wetlands. There are a lot of details to take in.
