I was so fed up with trying to save this orchid after it lost its bloom last year, that I threw it out. My husband literally pulled it out of the garbage and kept it in the basement. He'd water it once in a while when he'd remember to. Last week I found it and what a beautiful surprise. I took a couple hundred shots this morning. Here are a few. Enjoy!

I agree, the lighter exposure and background suits this subject nicely. Outstanding work, Cyn! :thumbup: :thumbup:

It's funny...when I see each of these in isolation, it changes how I feel about them. Particularly the softer pp'd as in the first. I can see the first one on a card..maybe an Easter card. Thanks for your comments Carlysue

Congratulations to your husband for saving this beautiful plant, and to you for taking such good photos of it. The first one is my favorite.
