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.)

 A Merry Winter Solstice to all!
Woohoo  Here comes the sun! 
I look forward to the longer days
Love that photo, Tindo - it reminds me of the Catskills upstate.
