Lovely colors -- the vibrant, well-lit pink against the dark backdrop of deep green. Very lifelike! Thanks for sharing this bright shot of interestingly shaped pink blooms! Daphne Oberon

Comment from Robert Plain
Very beautiful photo, SG. Those flowers are very vibrant and your composition is superb. And the background is nicely subdued so as not to distract from the flowers. Very well done.

A beautiful flower that can replace a CO2 alarm. What could be a better deal? The colors of this orchid are fantastic and well shown in this attractive composition.
