Has an Oriental feel to this and well-balanced.
I don't see any green though ;)

Ahhhh another trick from art class ... the power of three. And this pic is proof positive of that statement. The framing and the lighting and the pp all great.

Tried different things..I think this is a lost cause until I figure out how to do layering.

this flower has interesting shapes. Again this looks like it belongs on a wall of an oriental bedroom.

I'm going to try to crop most of the black off...maybe that will make a difference...Thanks for the comment.

A very good fix! you darkened out the texture of the background fabric and you removed the identity tag. I like it!

Orchids! these pretty green ones are irresistible. You could try holding something like a piece of white cardboard in front of the flash, to bounce /diffuse it, next timee.

Thanks for the comments...will try a redo. Not a reflection...I did a soft focus on the flower in front.

These were indoors at the fair...so I used the flash. Not really pleased with this but I don't know how to fix it.

Beautiful orchids! The colors are incredible and the background shows them off beautifully!
