I'll join the club and say I like the color version better, too! I think it would be improved if the colored centers of the flowers were a lightened a little and more saturated. This has a nice, even softness to it, so it could end up spoiling the mood. bee1000

This is the best version of the orchids, IMO. I like them in color since it really brings out the backlighting and adds another pleasing dimension to the image. shu

Thanks for posting the color version Ann - I think I like it better than the b&w version. I also like the distinctions made in the new title ;)

Our friends have some type of orchid growing in their dining room and for months now, this one single leafless pencil-thin shoot has been growing - nearing touching the ceiling - but still no flower yet - Kelly
