Recently photographed at a local orchid nursery. I chose a black black ground to show the delicate nature of the flowers.

Floyd - Just beautiful. Nice soft lighting - I might have liked a wee bit more light for the stem in the lower left.

Well done, Floyd! Good DOF choice capturing the details. Also good spacing on all sides.
I like the colors, and I believe that the black BG was the right choice.
