Default How much sunlight?

Hello all. I decided to "de-lurk" for a while to find out about sunlight. I
took my orchids out on the porch (I live in CO). For a couple of weeks they
have been staying totally out of the sunlight. Few days ago I put them in
the sunnier spot, where they get morning sunshine until about 11 AM. I have
a wildcat odontocidium and couple of young cattleyas, as well as one phal
that is just about done blooming.
I would love to know how much sunlight is too much for an orchid. And, by
the way: is it a good idea at all to take orchids outside in CO?
I hope I did not do anything stupid...
Peace, - Maggie's Mom.
