A Dwarf Greenhood Orchid (Pterostylis nana) that I photographed near Huntly in Victoria. This fragile native Orchid was less than 10 cm in height and very difficult to spot on the forest floor. EXIF: Canon EOS 30D : 1/250 sec : f/5 : 100 mm : ISO 100

What an interesting specimen. Glad you spotted this. It looks almost like a little creature holding its arms up in joy, happy to have its photo taken. :-)

It's such a strangely beautiful flower. So delicate It seems as if the slightest breeze could destroy it.
