Bahamian Photographer In Prestigious Orchid Magazine

It's no easy task getting published in one of the most prestigious publications in the world on Orchids, but two images of Dendrobium spectible by this former Bahamian diplomat are gracing the pages of the AOS Bulletin this August.
 
Aug. 8, 2009 - PRLog -- Former Bahamian Diplomat, Winston D. Munnings, is also an avid flower photographer. One of his specialties is Orchids. Two of Munnings’ orchid shots, along with a brief biography and insight into his technique, were recently featured in the August 2009 edition of ORCHIDS Magazine, one of the leading international publications on Orchids.

The Monthly Bulletin is published by the American Orchid Society with headquarters in Delray Beach, Florida. Published since 1932, the Bulletin of the American Orchid Society was formerly known as the AOS Bulletin. As for the organization itself, the American Orchid Society is more than just a flower club.  Throughout its 85-year history the AOS has strived to bring its members timely and state-of-the-art orchid information, support basic and applied research in orchids, and monitor and support conservation effort not only in North America but throughout the World.

"For me this was a dream come through. I’ve been a member of the American Orchid Society for just a few years now, but have always imagined one of my images being published in its Bulletin one day" Munnings said.  "As a Photographer, this is quite an honor which I will cherish forever and a day" he continued.

A Native of Islands of The Bahamas, Winston studied Photography at the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale and the New York Institute of Photography.  After almost two decades in the Diplomatic Service of The Bahamas, he retired as Consul General and currently shuttles between South Florida, Washington DC., and The Bahamas.  Although he refers to himself as a Generalist, he has a passion and fondness for Flower Photography.... Orchids, in particular.  Winston is also a former Television & Radio News Anchor, and former News Editor with the Broadcasting Corporation of The Bahamas.

Winston has two 'Orchid Only' websites:  http://winstondmunnings.imagekind.com/store and http://flower429.redbubble.com/
