The ORCHID SHOW (Brazilian Modern) at the NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN



















This year's ORCHID SHOW at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx features a contemporary Brazilian garden designed by RAYMOND JUNGLES. The famed landscape architect used fountains, pools and mosaics and art reproductions of Brazilin artist and landscape architect ROBERTO BURLE MARX to combine with the thousands of orhids as well as palms, bromeliads and other native plants of Brazil. I made these images when I visited the New York Botanical Garden's Enid A. Haupt Conservatory to see the beautiful orchids. The orchid show runs through April 12.
