Beautiful shot - I love the focal point and shallow DOF!

Superb image. I love the way you minimised the detail of the bulk of the flower and emphasised with explicit focus the pistil.

I like the way the curve draws you right into the orchard. Beautiful composition Roberta. Linda L

Well I like the blue background. Nice shade of blue that compliments the orchid's own colours. Focusing on the "jaws" was a great idea.

Roberta, I like your selective focus on the "slender curves", the angled composition, and the soft color here. Beautiful shape/form. MFC

I like those graceful curves! Nice usage of shallow DOF.

I agree, Roberta, very sensuous image! I like the very shallow DOF and the perspective. Nice work! Helen

Wow! A very sensual picture. I like the focus on the "angel like" part of the orchid. Beautiful!
