That is incredibly beautiful!!!!!!!!!!

If you happen to use google-drive, then it's possible to upload a bigger and crisp pic. Interestingly google drive so far doesn't have advertisements. Not sure if they will in the future ----- but at least none for now.

Thanks everyone! I've been super excited to see this thing bloom! Fully bloomed today and... I'm on a hiking trip tomorrow. May be all gone when I get back. At least I got one day.

I think you're mis-underestimating my terrible photo skills. My hands shake when I take photos, and it's difficult for me to take crisp ones.

hahahaha! Jeff ----- your pics turned out great - even the original ones you showed.

What happens is ----- the orchidboard automatic image processing (for our uploads of images --- automatic process) not only converts our images to a size of about 1024 x 768 pixels (sometimes even smaller) in pixel dimension --- but also further removes as much detail as it can in order to make the filesize relatively small --- eg. just 80 kilobyte. The image is still watchable obviously ----- but the nice sheen, shine, sharpness, colours often won't be there ---- which is what we expect when too much compression is done.

A 1024x768 image uploaded to orchidboard will usually be less sharp and less vibrant etc than say a regular 1024x768 pixel image linked to google drive. That's because the uploaded orchidboard image has more image detail discarded.
