Hi Patti,
I agree with Fred that the 3rd pic looks like sunburn. The last pic (#6) is just a darkening
from where the old flower spike was. The other 2 might be just nothing more than dark
spots at the base of the drying sheaths around the pseudobulbs and along the rhiziods.
Keep an eye on it just to make sure it doesn't get soft and mushy. As digitalgate stated,
it might be going into a dormant resting period after flowering when it is not actively
growing. Allow it to remain on the dryer side until new growth is seen.
