Nice and delicate.  Beautiful colors and textures.  Nicely captured. Regards - michel

Christal this is a pleasure to look at. The colours are delightful. Your focus, and exposure are perfect. I like the crop.  I have some photos of orchids that I am editing right now. They are such beautiful, exotic flowers. Past my bedtime, I am getting too sleepy to type. Good night.

christal,  these look like two old friends sitting having a chat.  simplicity is always hard to beat.  lovely work!

You have Roger's seal of approval, that make's it perfect....  Great shot.... Mike

Pierre, thanks!  It's good to hear from you, my friend.  And I'm afraid it had been way too long since I paid a visit to your portfolio.  I left a few comments there this morning. 

Michel.....so good to hear from you.  I certainly value your opinion!

Linda....I agree that orchids are so beautiful, and they have so much 'personality'.  Yet I find them difficult to photograph and have many that 'don't make the cut'.  I did like this one however......glad you do too.  I'll keep a look-out for yours!

Roger.....coming from the 'master' flower photographer, I take that as a supreme compliment.  Thanks so much for your kind words.

Mike....I agree!  :-)  Well, I mean about Roger's approval.....not about it being perfect!  :-)  Thanks!

I like a lot the "cut" you did to create the composition. it makes nearly a" human " twins... Beautiful color palette. on the nearly black BG. Nice flowers photo.

The texture of the velvety petals of these orchids came out so well and the lighting was just excellent. Beautiful shot!

Regards, Christal

very Good.

Beautiful colors and lighting!

Pnina, Lester, Tony and Dominick......It means a lot to get good reviews on this from all of you excellent photographers.  I haven't had a lot of success taking pictures of flowers, so I'm trying to get better.  I took many single orchid shots, but in the end I like this one best. 

Thanks to you all!

Very nicely done. I like the composition and the all the details and texture you hold on the image.

Wonderful work indeed.

Christal,

The details and color are fantastic, . . . especially your handling of the whites!

The background and composition are excellent as well as your fitting title of "Twins!"

Regards always, and thanks for sharing,
