The last time I was at the Botanical Gardens I took only infra-color photographs (half infrared and half visible light).

Returning today for the Orchids festival with my friend Julia (of Shoe fame) and her husband, I brought along two visible light cameras.

The below frame is strait out of the camera without any contrast or saturation changes made. This flower really looks just like this.
