Thanks, ddalhin! I love these! Looks like you did a really nice job!
Also, to clarify for everyone. Nature photography can include photography taken outdoors - wildlife, plants, landscapes. Nature photography can also include natural elements seen outdoors.

A shot of some early purple orchids in Silverdale, Cumbria
Thank you Cullin and JohnBax - these are some nice photo shots! Looking forward to seeing more!
Nature under cultivation; the Primula vialii often referred to as the 'orchid primula' likes a moist, humus rich soil and a little dappled shade.
This image was taken several years ago using a Kodak DC210 one megapiixel camera.
