Impressive macro rendition with pin sharp clarity of the tongue, throat & epiglottis!
Harmonious dreamy colors.
Visually soothing.
Compact framing.
Subtle lighting.
Thanks for sharing.
(Worth an extra star rating!)

I absolutely love this piece!! The purples are so soft and the center of the orchid is breathtaking.
I would never have known how beautiful the inside of an orchid was until I saw your photograph!! I love how you framed it and the overall composition is spot on!!
I would have given this a 6 but I didn't have any left so just consider this a 6 anyway!!
You are an excellent photographer and do superb work!
Than you so much for sharing.

Excellent initial impact, I love your use of space filling the frame just with the borders f the petals , your focus on the center is perfect as well as exposure, your macro camera settings are excellent and your picture is clear and share in detail I love the angle and position as your make us looks until deep inside of the bloom ending in deepness without ground - the structure of this orchid teaches us that there is much more we can imagine - your picture is well framed with a nice teaching effect , it has a perfect contrast and lighting, is soft and lovely - a very well balanced and harmonious picture, well done, all the best for the contest
