Although very small, the white flowers of the Autumn Lady's Tresses are miniature versions of the showy cultivated orchids that are sold in garden centres everywhere. The flowers spiral round the stem, hence its Latin name Spiranthes spiralis. First image with 280mm lens length 5.6 aperture and focus bracketed with 10 shots, stacked with Zerene. Next two show the extremes of the stack - not quite enough depth as info for next attempt! The camera was flat on the ground shooting through the foliage to give the soft foreground. The rest are with the 50mm macro. The first a stack of 15 images 2.8 aperture, then single images at F16 and F8. Thanks Richard for showing us these very small orchids on a hillside in Bedfordshire.
