I applied a little soft focus to give this orchid a more "sensual" effect. Does it work? Thanks for your comments.

I think the rendition of the flowers is quite beautiful, but I think there might be too much black.

I think that cropping a bit tighter could help, Floyd. I like the look to the flowers.

I like it! The softening makes this much more at home with the black background. I agree, a tighter crop would benefit this.
