Dendrobium Thong Chai Lai

This spike is just starting to open up.

Geez, that is quite a contrast, the green looks like neon.

[WolfinKW]

Thanks it is a nice one. I've never been able to get a close up like that until I got a tripod.

Wolfy old pal are the colours really like that ?
Or is the lighting screwing them up slightly ?
It looks a tad bleached.

[WolfinKW]

The flash may have washed out some of the bud color on the top but the bloom is like that. I can take another if you like when the sun goes down and see if that changes it.

[WolfinKW]

this is the same flower, same position on deck but I didn't use a flash this time. At 1943 it's bright out but no direct sun on my yard at all.

Yes! Very nice. I love the hint of purple!

Cheers!

It is just a hint of purple too... very hard to capture and get into the depths of the throat too. In bright sun you don't see the purple much at all.

[uncasteeb]

Very unusual but very pretty.
