      Thanks Nicole! Nikon D80. I highly recommend any digital SLR for capturing the light the way that you want to - and especially when photographing children! Have a great weekend!

    A great picture of one of the most beautiful orchids in the world. As far as I know Vandas come from Thailand.

    I love the Vanda and have a blue one myself... I did rebloom it one year but nothing since... wish I knew what's missing in the equation since they are so special... Larry
