Orchids

I know the difficulty of photographing white flowers in that one can lose detail in the petals. To bring out of some petal detail, I applied a small amount of tonal contrast.
Any comments/suggestions are welcomed. Thanks for viewing.

Nice diagonal comp. The blooms standout very well against the black bg. Detail is quite good

Well composed, Floyd. The curvature makes it unstatic. I think that you succeeded
in bringing out the details.

Very nicely done, Floyd. I love the graceful arch of the orchids. The three forward and two profiles is very effective.
