D. "Photographed Orchids" is one thing. But how to photograph orchids in digital photography I think was the question. My answer is that the techniques are learned, not so much from books, as from practice. Books like John Shaw's "Photographing Nature" books certainly explain most of the basics that are necessary for decent close-up photography. But taking lots of clicks is the real answer. The technique isn't much different for photographing a Geranium than a mini Dendrobium.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
