Those are all quite gorgeous and none of them familiar to me. My
favorite is the wild currant, probably because of the black background.
The calypso orchid could benefit from some additional foreground
brightness (or background darkness) to separate the flower from its
environment.
I'm surprised to learn that the 4/3 adapter is in two parts. The Canyon
ones are a single piece except for two small screws. One is the
aperture stop down and the other a rotation limit pin for the mount.
