This wonderful Paph Memoria Rex Van Delden (Lady Isabel x armeniacum) was awarded a FCC of 93 points at the Fraser Valley Orchid Society show this past weekend. It also won best of its class as well as the overall show champion.
(p.s. It's not my plant)

A very pretty plant, no doubt. I am not seeing anything that's screaming FCC though. The two flowers have two very different forms, one having down swept petals, the other does not.
 
A FCC is a bit of a stretch for me as well. To me the flowers look very much alike but held at different angles in the photo to give the appearence of shapes. I must say that is one huge plant!
 
I'm glad others have questioned the award. When I first saw this, I decided to keep my mouth shut. But maybe the judges saw it in a "different light."
