Awesome! I'm so glad it did as well as it did. I thought it would do worse acutally, but enough people got it I guess. I showed it to my girlfriend and she couldn't figure it either - and she has a huge IQ score! - but loved it when I told her what it was. A very appreciated picture!! Great job!!! And I envy the amount of comments. You probably have more than half the amount of I comments I have in sum on this one picture. Good Job!!!

I can't figure out how this picture fits the challenge, and I don't really understand it. But I like it! the colors are awesome. I would like to know WHAT the subject is. If you would like to explain how it fits the challenge, I will revote it if I feel your exaplanation and subject is relevant to the challenge.

I almost feel like an idiot because I totally see it now!! I love this shot, it has to be one of my favorites in the challenge and I am glad that you explained it to me! I hope that everyone else can be open minded about it.

paphs are my absolute favorite! i have 3 really incredible ones myself and a nice phrag too. once they come into bloom again you can bet i will share them here with you!

the color and detail are excellent on the flower. i think a little more blur on the background would work, but that's only nitpicking. too bad you didn't catch it earlier when the 'slipper' was healthy. 8
