Orchids: Hotel Bougainvillea, San Jose, Costa Rica, March 2025 — This was my first trip to Costa Rica during Orchid blooming season and there is no where better to get a taste of the variety of tropical orchids than the gardens of the Hotel Bougainvillea. It seemed like there was a new orchid around very corner. I don’t pretend to know my orchids and I am not sure what any of these are, but they certainly are beautiful. Sony a6700. Tamron 50-400 at various focal lengths as needed to fill the frame. My macro settings (aperture preferred for depth of field). Processed in Photomator and assembled in FrameMagic.
