photo hunt: family
Friday, October 17, 2008
I wanted to avoid a family crisis and since I couldn't choose the appropriate family picture to post here, I looked for another family... and found a very beautiful one, thanks to the wiki.

Orchidaceae (or Orchid family) is the largest family of the flowering plants.(Angiospermae). Its name is derived from the genus Orchis.
These pictures were taken at the Orchid Exhibition at the Ludwigsburg Palace 's orangery (see prior post) outside Stuttgart.
Since I don't have time to blog on weekends I post my Photo Hunt on Fridays as it allows me to interact with the early birds ( cheers!) .Pls know that I return every weekend visit but sometimes it has to wait until Monday ... sorry about that!

You chose a beautiful family to showcase. Thanks.
Great and unique take on the theme. I never thought about plant families and this is a beautiful one. Have a nice weekend!
how beautiful, like you I could not find a family photo either! I strayed a bit also but did family in many different ways.. I love orchids! :)
Those are so beautiful Mar. I love orchids and this is a great spin on the theme. Happy weekend.
gorgeous orchidées! These are so delicate and with such beautiful colours! I hope you will visit me again and entry in the diaporama! This was an exhibition of my brother in law in a beautiful wine estate. Nothing to do with spiders but a great moment in a super estate!
Lovely orchids. We currently have six orchid plants, including the one in the photo on your far right.

I remember my orchids which all met their end too soon because of my "black thumb" :(

Beautiful, Mar! I ♥ orchids! I have never been to the Orchid Exhibition - although Stuttgart is not too far away and my PILs used to live there before they moved to Spain.

Happy week end:-)
nice take into this week's theme :)

I chose not to put up any picture of my family, for the very same reason!
Wow I like the orchids lovely...TC
This is a beautiful depiction of family! Well done for thinking differently.
Simply MARvelous again! Funny coincidence, when you were posting this, we were attending a small Orchid Exhibition here in Stockholm! Though my photohunt is about something not as pleasant as orchids.... *giggles*
Your approach this week is special! And hi from one of the early birds. :)
Very beautiful, indeed! Have a great weekend, Mar :-)
Hey, Mar, it's a family. And a beautiful one, actually!
