That's one of the best pictures of Pleuro mystax I've ever seen! Nice shot!
I really like this one, but for kind of an odd reason. The first pic I saw of this orchid was taken when the flowers were wet and almost slimy looking. At the angle the photo was taken, they reminded me of flying salamanders (the lip is the head, the lower sepals are like front legs, and the dorsal is the tail). I know the scientific name means "the mustached pleurothallis" but to me it will always be the "mystical flying salamander."
