 I set out to create a very traditional still life image that featured an orchid, a copper mister, a small pile of bark, a small pile of moss and a couple of stakes. But, when I went to crab the orchid I was amazed by the quality of light I was getting through the window. I left the orchid as it was, crabbed a reflector and started shooting. The framing is a bit tight to avoid the window frame, but I like the simplicity of the result.

well composed shot, the shallow dof is a nice touch. although the lower right leaf lacked some detail, I still like the sort of backlighting effect created here

the blown out orchids make it a little hard on the eye, nice choice of subject and nice setup 6
