Hello Peter!
Very impresive species! I have never seen such ochrid. By the way, it would be nice to know how huge was this flower (I can compare if with some other plant species but it is still not clear :>) - 40cm? 20cm?
Greetings,
Radomir
interesting orchid, nice to see its habitat. Yuo can reduce contrast a little. TFS Ori

Hi Peter,
Rare orchid and nice background. I agree with Ori about contrast.
