Thanks both!
My first time too, Mike, and I wouldn't have spotted them if they hadn't been pointed out to me.
I needed a four second exposure for this which gave me subject movement issues as the evening wasn't completely still. I improvised and used a couple of twigs to hold it steady.

Great shot Dave, of what in my opinion is one of the most difficult orchids to photograph.

Thanks Dorts - it was certainly a tricky subject, not helped by the weather.
