M.O. II
Taken in same session as the previous post but a different flower spike and a shallower depth of field to isolate the flowers a bit more. Given last feedback probably still a bit half way house and not tight enough on the flower spike

Olympus E3, 50mm F2, iso 200, 1/2000s at F3.2, tripod, gold reflector Full frame but cropped from 4:3 to 3:2 "norm".

I do like that, plenty of env in the shot and not just boring green BG.

Nice shot, a bit more room over the head I think, but very nice :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast:

Another great orchid shot Mike. Agree with Phil on a touch more room at the top if you have it.

Nick. :wavey: :toast: :smile:

The bright stem dominates the shot for me Mike :wink:
