Gorgeous photo. The colors of the orchids are incredible. You don't see that color very ofetn. I love the darkness of the bottom but it does seem a little out of focus. My eyes are starting to go so maybe its me. Otherwise a great photo.. should be an all time best very soon.

Thanks David, I appreciate your positive feedback, focus is not as sharp as I would like but difficult without access to tripod.

That explains it. Very nice anyway. Congrats on a wonderful photo.

Oh this photo caught my eye immeditely! The detail is outstanding and the beautiful hues of purple are gorgeous. This jumps out at you. It makes me feel like I can feel the pedals in my fingers. Outstanding.

This must be rare. It is a work of beautiful colors, good framing and focus. The beauty of the orchid is spectacular. The little white centers appear as lights. Nice job.

Thanks so much, apparently the color is unusual but the spieces of orchid is quite common. Cheers

what a delicate look to these beauties. Like the full frame, focus and exposure and really neat for one stem. Good work and well presented.
