Default unidentified orchid in bloom - link to photographs

Schomburgkia for sure. Schomb. tibicinis, likely, or possibly brysiana.
The differences in these two species are, to my eye, rather minimal, but you
can find good pics of each at http://www.orchidspecies.com/ to help you
decide which. The text description mentions two differentiations, but my
eye could only pick up the one in the column.

Hi. Can anyone help me identify this beautiful orchid that is in about
min-bloom here in my Texas greenhouse. It was given to me by a friend.

The flower spikes are over a meter in length. Photos at this link show
both flowers and leaves:

Thanks for any help.
