User's notes
Two different plants, growing near one another but not completely sure if they are the same species, or if one is just an older flower than the other. I’m certain it’s some kind of greenhood orchid but I can’t seem to pin it to a single species. Found growing in a small patch under part shade in some dense sclerophyll forest on the south base of mount Jerrabomberra. Any help identifying it would be much appreciated.

The second plant is just a bit fresher than the first. These are reaching the end of their season so you were lucky to find a fresh looking one.
