Hola Raimundo.
Tienes en tu galeria una muy bonita coleccion de hermosas fotos, sobre todo de flores como esta que al parecer es muy pequeña y sin embargo luce de maravilla gracias a la calidad de foto.
Saludos Mi buen amigo

Oi Raimundo

A delicadeza da captura de suas lindas flores é digna de respeito e cheias de sensibilidade..

mais uma bonita captura.. preciso de um tempo para ver seu portfolio e tomar um banho de "ver coisas belas"... :))
gosto desta preocupação com a técnica de captura-las.
parabéns amigo

Hello Raimundo,

That's a very attractive flower, a very nice image.

Thanks,

Hello Raimundo,
a nicely well composed presentation of this fragile and pretty tropical orchid. I like the subtle colours in the dim light. Thank you!
With best regards,
Peter
