During a balmy January 2006 morning, we grabbed the cameras and visited the Conservatory of Flowers at Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, to enjoy the Special Exhibit in the West wing of the Conservatory.  With the morning sunshine pouring in, the "Modern Art of the Orchid" (featured November 4th - February 26, 2006) was a rewarding experience.  Getting there early was a good idea as the folks just kept coming in, and unrestricted photographing would become difficult before late morning.  This gallery features much of the exhibit plus a few extras.  Gallery Thirty was first published February 3, 2006 by City Birds.
