With regards native orchids, yes I do have many images which I will start sharing a few in a new post.

My pleasure!

I look forward to seeing some of your orchid images.  Mine are largely limited to botanic garden visits, which is far from ideal with other visitors jostling for position and limitations on the use of tripods, practical, if not by regulations.

Last year I had the excitement of seeking out a rare, non-native orchid which I believe was a native of Canada, on the Isle of Skye, with a well known Norwegian botanist. We found it but I had been using her Z7 and didn't think to ask for the image files I made on her camera so I don't have any decent images, the iPhone snaps I took (mainly to get the GPS coordinates) were very poor as the red of the flower oversaturated the sensor.
