A Wild Orchid

YAY for your orchid. Isn't it funny how we wait for a plant to do its thing????? I planted tulip bulbs and they are coming up. I've never had them before so I'm anxious to see the blooms too! CONGRATS (I love purple and black too.)

With the layer, it looks like the flower is glass too. VERY COOL.

This subject has a very engaging look in this image. You did well to time and frame the shot so perfectly. The bokeh BG is perfect for this subject.

There was a lot of potential at this location. Too bad the farmer was not so pleasant. I feel that you would have gotten a few excellent images from this scene if you had been able to study it a little, and shoot carefully. For the circumstances, you did get this one good shot. A re-edit, and burn and dodge a little to lighten it up the barn would make it pop to the front of the image.

This is a very nice view of a single flower in the making. If you had put it in the "Bokeh" challenge, I think that the little light area just left of the bloom would have caused a problem with voters. I like it a lot for the softness of bokeh, and the two color contrast with the very white petals and the dark green all around.

Lovely - the way the color of the script matches the moon is wonderful.
