flowers Oncidium hybrid

When I was young in the 60s, dad grew orchids. One of them was the Golden shower. We didn't value it was it was common. When I grew up, I saw these yellow orchids on display in hotels in Singapore.

The other day, I saw this, the colour was quite unusual. It was only when I got home, that I saw the shape is quite similar to the golden shower, except it is twice the size. My friend tells me it is an oncidium hybrid.
