Lovely Orchid, very interesting the pubescence at the "labellum" the shot is beautiful as well, nice contrast and great BG.

Excellent stacked detail, fine composition - and a lovely orchid.

Hi

Ideally I would like the flowers more grounded with a sharp looking stem - no idea if this is possible with stacking or not. But suggestions aside a wonderful image that certainly shows off those floral delight with aplomb

All the best
Matthew

Hi Mathew,
Thanks for your comment.
The biggest problem is wind and motion, which make the stacking process difficult if not impossible - hence - of outside work - I try to keep these at a minimum - unlike in the studio - where it is no concern.

You can keep these coming all day long! I love orchids and this is a little beauty. Sweet detail in nice soft light.

Thanks for the kind comments, Carol.

This group was photographed on Sardinia in early spring - a true orchid paradise.

Unfortunately with the miserable weather we've experienced this past month - we've missed out on our local peak season..... :(
