BLOSSOM

A single orchid blossom.

Still playing around with focus, I intentionally have most of the flower slightly soft and concentrated on highlighting the "mouth," so to speak, of the orchid.

  2. The sharp focus on the "mouth" and the soft focus on the petals is perfect. Also the raindrops really add to the composition. I'm glad to to be in your group for the next few months, Lorri.

  3. I just love orchids, their "faces" give them so much personality!

  4. So lovely, I love your focus and filling the frame. The water drops are icing.

  5. Very controlled focus here. The rain drops are a nice touch, also.

  6. Great placement and good depth of field. The edges are nice and sharp making the flower appear to pop off the page.
