Good details on this orchid, I like how the light shows the petals on top of each other ;-)
However, there's a couple of minor problems to think about. One is the cropped top leaf, which should have been in the photo, the other is the strong over exposure on the background. With flowers (that don't move if you rummage around) it's pretty easy to fix a background problem, as you can hold a piece of cardbord or the like behind the flower to give a background that doesn't burn out. Choose a colour that doesn't clash with the flower and an angle that doesn't give "glare" in the photo.

Jose, wonderful back lighting for your orchid, good DOF. I agree with Milloup about the background

Orchidee is my favourite flower..after Strelicia of course:) flower is OK here but framing rather not. It should be more central or on the left. Anyway I like it:)

Hi,
great macro, details, composition and details!

Me encantan las transparencias en las flores, pero núnca se me ocurrió con una flor blanca, queda muy delicado y limpio.
Yo la hubiera recortado más para evitar los "quemados" centrandome en la flor.
Es una orquidea muy bella, gracias por compartirla.

bonjour josé
magnifique orchidee et bonne mise au point,une petite retouche malgres tout pour le contraste.

Moth orchids, beautiful! It looks like modern art. I like the one on the leftside especially!

Hello Jose,
Orchid very well captured!
Macro work is well done, and you achieve this sought after soft-crisp result...
Interesting light, superb details!
Greetings,
