Backlit Orchid shot with a macro adapter and against a window on a cloudy day, had to adjust levels slightly and correct the color back to white (from a slight yellow)

What a beautiful flower. I think it is a bit crowded at the top. Maby a close crop would have better. Or if you would have cloned out some parts of the flower in the top of the image.
Keep on trying. I see potential in you. Good idea using a window as backlight.
im guessing you are going for the soft sensual look, i think you should have kept going with it. This almost seems like an intermediate step in the process.
The main subject, the flower in the foreground has lost shape due to intensity of light on the upper edges. Light location may be off, as IMO allowing radiance to come through the petals offer the best illumination of white on white. Still, a thoughtful and tender study.
i have an idea what you're after, but this seems a bit chaotic to me. hard to find a strong subject with all the competing soft elements that make up most of the image. love the colors. good luck!
