Orchids


I find that the orchid is a highly beautiful flower and this photo showcases such. Perhaps what is most appealing are the bright colours of yellow, pink, and purple that are speckled on each pedal. This particular photo was taken in one of Montréal's Botanical Garden greenhouses.

 * Ones in front are nice, but the rest are a bit blurry.. -Goldom (t) (Review) 01:12, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose quality isn't that great, needs brightening up a bit too.
 * Oppose. I did a quick edit. The original was a little oversharpened, probably due to in-camera sharpening being set a bit too high.  It's not terrible, but it's there at 100%, and there's nothing that can really be done with it.  Same for the somewhat too-shallow DOF.  Stuff in the bottom of the frame (brick wall?) is distracting too.  I like the edit better than the original, but I don't think it's FP material. -- moondigger 03:15, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the great edit; the photo looks much better!
 * Support This picture takes me back down memory lane when I dated an orchid gardener. This is totally FP material! — Preceding unsigned comment added by User:ButterLips (talk • contribs)

 * [[Image:Symbol oppose vote.svg|15px]] Oppose DOF is a bit low and the background is pretty bad. --Fir0002 00:25, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
