A few captures from a recent trip to the Fuqua Orchid Center.
Don’t get me wrong, I love orchids – but it amazes me that I’m mostly drawn to the other plants and wildlife in the greenhouse. And Kodak Portra 160 film is definitely growing on me.
I am signing off for the rest of the week. I plan on laughing a bit louder than I usually do, eating a bit too much, and spending some time with two little girls that are growing up faster than I would like.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
These are beautiful photos and reminds me of my dad’s makeshift greenhouse. He built a similar wooden structure and has orchids hanging all over the place in it. In the springtime when all the flowers are in bloom, it is so pretty 🙂
Orchids are one of my favorite flowers…. if only if I could keep them alive 🙁
Good for you, signing off and laughing loudly. Enjoy! I love coming here, your photos are mesmerizing!
hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving 🙂
beautiful photos, love the last one
Love, light, peace & much laughter to your and your family on this day of thanks! 🙂
Gorgeous light and colors. The sharpness and depth of field make them look almost like medium format shots.
Funny, I had a dream last night that I was using Portra 160 (film nerd alert). I’ve used it only once, I think, a while ago, and I liked the results. I should pick some up again. I strongly dislike Portra 400 for my own work (400NC was my favorite), but love Portra 800.
