This striking, widely distributed, but somewhat unobtrusive orchid is a parasite of soil fungi. I've mainly seen them under conifers. I photographed these in the San Jacinto Mountains in Riverside County, California. There was a slight breeze at the time, just enough to make the flower stalks wave around a bit, which was very frustrating for macro photography -- these are some of the few reasonably sharp images I got. |
