We were on a friends
walk to and soon after we started, we noted some orchids on the roadside
bank, more of the same we thought. Our leader, Bob, thought
otherwise, so I took some insurance shots. Well I was lucky as they
turned out to be new (to us) orchids. Moral - take a shot just in
case! Photographed at Ingleston Gorge, Werribee Gorge National Park |
