Sandy, your capture has an oriental feel to its presentation. Nice balance and capture. Beautiful lighting. Soft and delicate. :toast:

Beautifully presented, and I especially like the soft colors against the BG, your title fits this very well. Excellent work Sandy.

A beautifully presented still life, Sandy. The BG compliments the orchids nicely. I am not sure how you processed this, but it looks like a painting.

Wonderful coloring, Sandy. From this size image, a bit difficult to tell some of the details. The image appears a bit soft and that may have been deliberate on your part.

Sandy, both in this gallery and in macro, the shots of flowers that ALWAYS seem to catch my eye first are yours.

This is exquisite. Your shots should be prints on my walls!

Very nice.

This is off the charts beautiful, graceful, elegant. I think you nailed it. Looks like a meticulously crafted painting.

Great Shot Sandy, I love the softness of the petals and the BG colour is perfect. I dont know how you do it so consistanly, and I agree with Robert G, as long as you do I'll keep coming back.

It appears you used some type of HDR processing but it works very well here. Makes for a very painterly effect. Beautifully done!
