Coralroot Orchid
There is a patch of these lovely dainties that grow amid one of my favorite morel mushroom patches. That is ALL I am saying about where it is... LOL!

Good morning! Love your picture!
Good morning! Thanks! I am NOT telling you where I took it... lol!
I believe you ought to be getting your first payout... Time to come have a beer30 steem crash course? Mark is off tomorrow, wanna come have a brew?
It looks great! Perhaps position your composition slightly downwards, to allow more air above the orchid?
Thank you! I am trying to learn to make the leap from pictures to photography, I appreciate the input!

Mmmm Morels, where was this again? ;)
Tell ya' what, you come hunt with me and I will show you lol!
that looks like great morel hunting grounds! and oh my heart, a coral colored orchid! i love orchids <3
Me too! I always feel like I won a prize when I spot one in the woods lol! (Yeah, I am a cheap date!)
Beautiful orchid! I didn't think they would grow where it is cold...
We actually have several mountain orchids here! I spend a lot of my "mushroom hunting" time taking pictures of wildflowers! I have been going through old pics all day, I am probably going to make a slide show of my wildflower / mushroom pics soon. Idaho is amazing, but then so is every place I have ever been...
Who would have thought that this delicate thing would be an orchid. What a wonderful find!
I am still learning about the native wild growing ones.
OK, been trying to resist but I can't help myself... There HAVE to be fairies in there somewhere!
