The larger version is a perfect image of these orchids.

This is absolutely lovely, Floyd. The black background is the perfect complement to these beauties, and I love how they appear to be floating in space. That color of magenta/red is so hard to capture accurately (in my experience anyway) and you did a fabulous job of it here.

A real beauty - congrats on the WP!
It does feel a little odd to have no anchoring stem, though.... just floating in air.. :(but beautifully!)

A joy to behold, it appears to have just floated in to view, beautiful.
