Not my plant, I just took it to and from judging. Blue version of Phalaenopsis javanica.

Ah,
here's the scoop:
Little Brook Orchids imported a bunch of NBS Phal. javanica about a year ago and has been blooming them out. I'm not sure from whom, the tag said HF and then some numbers. Anyway, out of several dozen, one was like this. I don't think this is a result of breeding, but rather a mutation.
 
I love this species. Had no problem growing small plants but when they started making flower spikes and I tried to change potting to keep spikes out for flowering, I had problems.
