An Ode to Life Itself

If only it would be this simple
It'd shed a light in many a darkness.

So an Ode to Life Itself. And me in an Artistic Mood:)

    And yes, this one is all natural, no composition of shots whatsoever. The shapes of the flower give it a sort of enhanced fragility. Posted 11 years ago, modified 11 years ago

    Ahum, I do think it is a Phalaenopsis orchid family, but I cannot find the species exactly. Anyone, WildFlower?
    So many species undocumented in Wiki:)     Posted 11 years ago

      Sorry, Ludo, there are too many species and hybrids of them, not to mention that this is not the best shot for an ID... Posted 11 years ago

    Hi WF, yes, yo are right of course. It is a flower just like this one (except its colour, which is purple in my case, yet looks exactly the same in sctructure):

    It is growing from the ground up, on long stems. It now has 4 leaves, thick, long, and green.     Posted 11 years ago

      There's a collection of Phalaenopsis species and primary hybrids, but I couldn't find a good match. There are many other hybrids between more than 2 species or between different genera...
