Flower photo attached, what is it?

It's a Cattleya hybrid. Flowers look different under different growing conditions (light, temperature, fertilizer, humidity, season.....) and different photography (camera, photographer, lens, film vs electronic, which CCD sensor, ambient lighting, flash?) so it's nearly impossible to match a photo of a flower in one place to a photo of a flower in another place at another time.

A Cattleya. Culture it as you would a cattleya. High light, lots of drinks, drain well, keep warm, do not let sit in water. Pretty much once the tag is lost, it is had to tell, because many (thousands) look alike. I have many many orchids with no name other than "Phal, or Catt" and they all are treated like Phals or Catts.

Thank you. I am finding that are more names than looks. Names sometimes help me to increase my knowledge and explore other types.
