Bill:
Dazzling white! Very similar to the last which is still my fav. I kind of like the bud which in Ikebana is meant to herald the beginning of something new yet to come. Look forward to seeing the whole stem.

Bill, could I borrow these to use on my scanner? Just kidding. I like how you captured their simple, clean lines. Very nice.

The white against the white background is very nice, with just enough detail of the flowers. Very delicate and lovely.

Bill, I really enjoy the striking contrast between all the white and the colored centers plus green stem. The high key treatment is great. The visual flow is also great and this whole series has given me food for thought as my wife's orchids start to bloom.

Wonderful high-key image Bill. I particularly like the positioning of the lower three blooms.
