Exotic beauty

This Dendrobium Orchid flower was growing on a stem that had a number of flowers growing closely together. I had been waiting for a day with sunshine, so that there was enough light to take photos in my kitchen. What often tends to happen is that as soon as I buy a bunch of flowers, we get a string of gloomy, overcast days - by the time I can take photos, the flowers are way past their prime. For some strange reason, I just couldn't get a decent shot of this flower, but decided I would post the best I could find : )

"Dendrobium is a huge genus of orchids. It was established by Olof Swartz in 1799 and today contains about 1,200 species. The genus occurs in diverse habitats throughout much of south, east and southeast Asia, including the Philippines, Borneo, Australia, New Guinea, Solomon Islands and New Zealand. The name is from the Greek dendron ("tree") and bios ("life"); it means "one who lives on trees", or, essentially, "epiphyte"." From Wikipedia.
