 One of my orchids is in flower, and I just had to make sure I took a photo if it today, for this 'August Flower Side challenge'. I really like the colors of the background, against the color of this 'Princess' orchid blossom.

Enjoy....

Never seen and orchid like this. My mom would love this image - she is a fan of yours and you have a few images in these tones of colors that she really likes. Excellent image!

The colors are great in both versions. Looks almost like fabric from the 1970s. Groovy!

The background really is splendid for this, and way more colorful than anything I would have thought of!

I like the composition but it doesn't seem quite in focus.

This has wonderful colors, and just enough softness to make it seem a little abstract, like a painting.

Very pretty colors! My hubby and I used to have an orchid business, selling wholesale. They were fabulous when in bloom...

This is lovely, Shez.
