I am currently traveling so this is a post I prepared last week and is being automatically published. Technology eh! its wonderful 🙂

I produced an image of this Orchid last year, in fact the image won a competition which I was delighted about. This is an even closer view of that incredible detail in the centre of the Orchid. What struck me was the almost perfect symmetry between the left and right sides. Nature is truly incredible.
