I post pics here using a small sony digi. What do you use? Lighting? Backdrop? Nice images.

James, I wish I could grow the large bifoliate catts. I had to give up my C leopoldii for lack of space, and just when it was blooming size. Sob! Have had no luck blooming C schilleriana but C aclandiae and its hybrids do well for me. Thanks for the compliment re my pics. I shoot with a Sony DSC H-1 and alternate with Panasonic Lumix FH22 which, although a pocket size camera, has a nice wide 28mm lens, allowing me to shoot in natural light, which is my preference. I generally use posterboard for backdrops. I would love to see your large format shots. What is your choice of backdrop? Lighting?
Hybrid Mode
