Paphiopedilum glaucophyllum

A south east Asian slipper orchid. Thanks for any comments/ratings

they are always appreciated.

Lovely orchid! the dark background gives this beauty a very special mood! best wishes, jc

Gorgeous. Excellent lighting and the dark background works very well to set off the subject. The little fuzzy branch below makes this even better.

Amazing detail of a beautiful flower. The light on the foliage gives it a wonderful density. I am tempted to want to see more. Perfect light on the stem, just enough to define the lines, while keeping it subtle, and blending it to the background. Very nice work on a difficult subject.

That file of your continues to fascinate me, I look at it with more understanding eyes after your explanations, but this one looks like a human face with a moustch....;-))eyes, nose, moustach and a big mouth...LOL

 

I like the way it is placed on the frame, upright vs, the nearly horizontal green leave on the lower BG. accentuated on the solid dark BG. Simply a beauty!
