#3 for me because I am still very much excited about today's two location shoots.
This beautiful orchid is Diuris Punctata - Purple Diuris and  is classified as vulnerable.
This afternoon at Langwarrin Flora and Fauna Reserve.

Thank you Odille. It's a privilege to have the chance to photograph such a rare native orchid and I hope to sneak back before the weekend to do a small series before they all wilt. The average life of a bloom is less than 5 days.
