Default Cattleya nobilior var. amaliae 'Venus'

Good shape and beautiful light color make this one of my favs. Color reminds me the cotton candy of my childhood!
Ah! And the fragrance! I still can smell the fragrance!! Yesterday I caught my wife saying to these flowers something like 'Hey, it seems that you wanna steal all the fragrances in the world! Only you wanna be perfumed?'

Here it its:

Thank you Hawaiian S and Swamper!
My camera is a Sony DSC-H5, 7.2 mpx equiped with Carls Zeiss 2,8-3,7 / 6-72 Vario-Tessar lens. Not a pro, but also not a point-and-shoot .
