| Cymbidium orchids are native to tropical Asia and Australia. They are best known for their incredibly thick petals that are hard and waxy. The blossom size and number of flowers vary by variety, ranging from an inch to five inches in diameter, and from a few flowers to more than 20 per flowering stem. They come in all colors except blue and true red. In their native habitat, they are epiphytes, or they grow in trees without soil supporting their roots. All cymbidiums have short, bulbous pseudobulbs, or thickened stems, which store water and bear multiple, strap-like, arching leaves. |

Good shot for a first post!
Welcome on TN.
I like the color and the softness of the light. My only comment is the framing. Either we see to much to illustrate a small detail, either we don't see enough the see the whole flower. But again the light is wonderful. I am sure you can do it again in a similar light and working your composition and framing. With attention, I sure you can show us great flower shot. TFS.
bravo! beautifull light, it should be a Cephalanthera rubra, if you have any information you can add on photo notes.
Thank you and welcome on TN
