Please read the rules and only mail the high resolution photos. Anything less than that won't be considered

Sorry, I'm new to anything like this.

Backgrounds are up to your discretion. OB does not alter them........to my knowledge.

Yes it has to be named. Species or Hybrids are OK, but please NO NOIDS

I know that this is specifically not in the rules, but is there anything against entering the same photo as last year (which was not selected)?

I know that it's not very creative, but the reason I ask is because all my photos are on my external harddrive, which I left in france since it wouldn't work on american voltage. I only have a few recent orchid photos on my laptop and I don't know if any are calendar quality.

If we have already put the name on the photo, and due to the background, could not remove it aesthetically, will that be okay?

I was thinking of doing the same thing since it was 14th. But opted for another, I don't see why not.
