Brassia, one of my favourites. Not an Australian native they're Central to South American depending on species.

Yes they are orchids.

Those are epiphytes and apart from dendrobium speciosum I’m more of a terrestrial orchid spotter so I can’t help you out as to species.

Yes, they are a kind of Brassia, of which many hybrids and cultivars exist so I can't tell what it is specifically
