I totally agree. They all are, and these ones are truly beautiful and so delicate looking with the light purple colors. All this is enhanced so well by the lovely background, and the three Orchids are standing out from it in an excellent way.

The flowers are nice and sharp and it is such clear and well defined details to be seen in all of them. I also think the exposure is spot on.

Topaz Texture effects has worked wonders for this photo, and the cropping is perfect. The three Orchids have also got a very good placement within the frame. Indeed a lovely and well taken photo Eileen, and with an excellent DOF.

The ONLY place I see these guys around up here Eileen is in the grocery store....lol....and they are expensive.

Lovely pale colors shown here....well exposed and really nicely detailed. Beautiful presentation w/ the three blossoms and vertical format. Perfect title too Eileen. Beautiful blossoms beautifully presented. Like it!

Comment from Sange


The title is apropos to your photo showing the soft early morning light in reality or created in Topaz.
There is a dream like softness that works perfectly here and it draws us in to the beauty and silence that early morning photo walks offer.
Your white balance/ exposure are Controlled well, focus, details and Placement within the frame are all handled well.
Lovely piece E ;)

Looks like watercolor painting, so beautiful. Flowers remind me exotic dragonflies sitting on the leaves. Soft colors are blended skillfully at the background. the whole composition made in the harmony of colors. Thanks for sharing.

A beautiful image with outstanding colors. I think the slightly soft look works very well with this subject. Excellent exposure and fine composition.
