What a gorgeous flower - I'm not sure I've ever seen one in person. Your bokeh is excellent in this - really showcases the flower well!

I love the deep tones in this. It's almost like an eggplant color. You did a good job with the shallow DOF too.

Another lovely orchid photo from you, Julianne! Sorry you missed that 6 so narrowly, but who cares, right? This is a pretty hard one to find much fault with, LOL. Some of the OOF stems are a bit distracting, but one could also say they had depth, so really a matter of taste. Love the colors and great title, too!
