For the fourth time, recently, in my 30+ years of observing Florida
native orchids in the wild, I have come across the albus (white) form of
the Grass Pink Orchid (Calopogon tuberosus). Photos taken with
natural light and an off-shoe camera flash unit. Enjoy this rare sight
that few naturalists have ever seen.
First, the flower, taken with natural light (very late afternoon).
Next, taken with an off-shoe flash, allowing a faster shutter speed and a lower aperture for more depth of field.
Enjoy!
