It looks like a very pink C. carnea. I'm assuming thats two flowers on the stem.

Yes same stem. The photo does not capture the full depth of colour. There are very many small pink orchids in this area with great variation in colour. Some (most) single stem, but colour varying from possibly pure white to these deep pink.
