The orchid flower heard my pleas!  Look what it is doing today!  These 2 pictures taken with my macro lens show the 2 different parts of the flower.  The top picture shows the back of it in focus, and the bottom picture shows the front piece.  It is bright cerise pink inside!

Lovely! I just love orchids, as you know! Take a pic when it's out too - the three pics together would make a lovely scrap LO!
