Hi Anita,
I like your photo with the orchid! I consider it is difficult to do a good photo with a white flower as it is not easy to render corectly the colortones. You did it! Also the well used DOF is keeping the flower in focus so even fine details of it can be seen.
Thank you for sharing,
Cristian
Bonjour Anita et Mike,
La publication manque un peu d'éclat pour faire resplendir les couleurs et bien mettre le sujet en valeur mais la précision des détails est appréciable.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
