There are over 3,000 species of wild orchid and Toshiro Inamori has photographically captured more than 700 of them. Nowhere else in the world you can find such an extensive and diverse collection of orchid images. These photographs are rare because they show not only the orchids themselves, but also the surroundings.

The end result: these photographs are both stunning to look at and considered to be of great academic value.

However, in this special collection we include photographs of extremely rare wild orchids certified as endangered species (based on CITES), and photographs being made public for the first time. While pushing deep into the bowels of the rainforest of Borneo, fueled by an insatiable passion for the orchid, our photographer, Mr. Inamori, has faced countless situations placing his life in peril.
