Orchid
by Philip Hodgkins
Most of the flowers I have counted on have been freeze burned at this point. Fortunately, I have access to a greenhouse full of all kinds of orchids. Hard to shoot, both because of the company of other orchids nearby and all the piping, lights, hanging baskets, wire, etc. Still I have managed a few nice ones.
