(5 images, click to enlarge) – I was lucky to find a small group greenhood orchids nodding in the wind along the side of a rarely used track, not far from home. With the sun making an appearance, I set about trying to capture the translucent beauty of their striking orchid hood.





Inspiration for an alien head? I took many more photos, but didn’t want to bore you 😉

I make nothing from this, you might make a new friend from Tasmania!
So tiny and delicate. You captured the gossamer hood perfectly. They are doing their morning meditation, celebrating the sun. 🙂

My first impression is that the flower is bowing to you. Beautiful photos!

I would have appreciated them standing tall and still more, they kept nodding in the wind 🌬

A green bird head. He looks thirsty with his tongue hanging out. Aren’t those orchids something else?!

I thought that too, with translucent heads! They are quite remarkable to look at in person.
