Sorry, I'm in rush now. Proper critique later!

Like other Ophrys species, looks interesting and great. How do you identify them as hybrids? I know that to be a very difficult task.

Regards, Petru

Lovely shot Jan!
Quality is very good and I like the framing a lot. Probably the BG is too busy and that makes the flowers kind of hide. They don't stand out well.
Anyway, I like it a lot.
WELL DONE!
