Orchids (please view larger)

Resubmitted - thanks to some helpful critiques.

Tony, your simple removal has made this a much more pleasant image to view. Have been to your sight, read your bio, and looked at all of your images. You have some great animal images and also a few really nice flower images. My favorite would probably be your dog leaning over the shoulder of your wife or friend.

Thanks Roger: yes Simon the dog is quite photogenic, also a strong personality, a real member of the family. That was a nice one of my wife Karen also. I've been admiring your roses and plan to come back. Tony

Thanks Pierre!
