		<description><![CDATA[The Philippines is a country with a lot of beautiful flowers. A lot of them are orchids. You&#8217;ll see them everywhere. In all gardens, even in small ones. And sometimes when you are in the provinces, just along the road growing in the wild. I have a lot of pictures of those nice flowers. I am showing you here a first selection with a lot of orchids. Most of the pictures I took with my Fuji Finepix S5700 camera, some details of them with the macro option. Click on one of the pictures to see a larger one.
