Hello Chris,

This is a beautiful alpine orchid. We got it in Romania too, but also scarce and rare, on few calcarous mountain peaks, more in the south part of the country.
Photo looks perfect technicaly speaking.

Cheers, Petru

Hi Christian.
I like your next charming art work so much. Beautifulness of the pictured subject is simply amazing as well as the skillfulness of the realization of your creative plan. Inclined composition is so impressive. Colours are nice and pleasant to eyes. Combination of details and sharpness of the fine flower and blurriness and colorfulness of the BG is great. Lighting is wonderful too. Bravo and kind regards.

Hello Christian!
This is really splendid photo! Great POV and DOF, also colours are fantastic. I like a black frame too, its makes this plant more exposed.
TFS and best regards,

Bonjour Christian,
Voilà une magique présentation de l'orchis vanillé que je connais bien aussi, puisqu'il fleurit aussi sur nos alpages. Je ne savais pas qu'il entrait dans la composition du philtre d'amour. Une chose à retenir!
Bonne journée et merci de cette image artistique

What an amazing looking Orchid you have presented here Christian. It is just superb with its unusual looking flower. The quality of the image is grand. The colour of the background works well to show all the detail in the flower. Impressive.
Cheers,

Bonjour Chrisitan !
Quelle fleur magnifiaue ! je ne l'avais encore jamais vue auparavant. J'adore sa forme et sa couleur. Les détails sont excellents, tout comme la composition et le BG, vert et flou, qui fait si bien ressortir le sujet. Un vrai régal pour les yeux ! :-)

bonjour christian
ah!
c'est agreable de pouvoir lire une note en français!!
jolie fleur,la netteté est bonne sur le devant de la fleur pour laisser place au flou de plus en plus prononcé pour donner une sorte de douceur.
beau contrate entre la fleur et son environement.

Hi Christian

I love the look of these dark red almost maroon Vanilla orchids. The dense inflorescence is jam-packed with the beautiful little flowers. I am glad for your part that you finally managed to find and photograph this species after searching for it for so long.

The colours are great and it really stands out well against the lovely green background. The exposure was spot-on to capture the remarkable features of this dark red flowers as red is a rather difficult colour to show such detail and contrast.

Well done MF and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hello Chris,
This is an orchid I'd love to see! In Sweden it is extremely rare and only remains in a few places up the north. The sharp details and the colours in your capture are really wonderful. Beautiful soft green background too.
Many thanks and regards,Ulla

Bonsoir Christian,
C'est une photo vraiment remarquable. La précision et la lumière sont très bien maîtrisées et la composition superbe, avec un doux arrière-blanc qui fait d'autant ressortir les teintes de cette orchidée. Du beau travail!
Amitiés,
Catherine
