Pink or Lavender Orchid?
I'd like to think that this orchid has a pinkish color rather than lavender! On this particular day, this orchid got a fresh drink, which doubles its beauty. I love the mixed colors of this orchid. Some part is light and soft, while other part is intensified with deeper colors.
I can always count on the Belle Isle Conservatory to see different type of orchids, with many different colors. During the summer, I often try to find time to take the kids there so they can enjoy the day being out with nature.
In any case, this orchid has the lavender tone to it, and I love all shade of purple. In the picture above, the orchid looks as if it is flying. Gorgeous isn't it?

ReplyDeleteOrchids are a real wonder of nature. Your photography does it justice. Very beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI don't care what color it is... orchids are beautiful in all colors. And this one, I think this is more on the shade of Lavender... or pink. hahahaha Can't decide. I'm color blind maybe.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors. My orchids are not doing well. I hope it revives soon.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful in any color, it does look like it is ready to fly.
ReplyDeleteLovely color - pink or lavender!
ReplyDeleteYes, flying, and just landed.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, this is perfection. Orchids are my favorite type of flower. I love dendrobiums, their just so delicate.
ReplyDeleteBoth of the colors are beautiful, but there's something different about the lavendar one.
ReplyDeletePersonally I would call this lavender. It is a beautiful photograph and color. Did you list the name of the species when you shot the photo? I would be interested in knowing it.
