Definitely Barkeria. Not sure if it was a species or hybrid -- couldn't get to the tag without sticking my hand in the display.

Thanks, OB. Really didn't think most of the shots came out all that great (though there were a few with which I was quite pleased). In some cases a flash diffuser or other lighting strategy I'm sure would have helped. Also one of these days I'll get back into making use of the manual settings. I was lazy and just let the camera do the "thinking".

These are beautiful! I miss going to orchid shows. There is a small one next month, but that is all we have reasonably close to where we live. There is only one other, hours away.
