it's a nice subject, but the background and lighting needs work. also, try to make the focus sharper. keep trying!

I think the subject is too centered, but I think the subjecty is fairly well lit.

I think flowers are just fine if centered in the frame, and this is a beautiful subject. However, it looks as though you used flash lighting (judging from the shadow to the left), and that's very difficult to control. I'd like to see you try more shots of this orchid, using available light and playing with the focus to try to get it very sharp, while letting the remainder of the plant go out of focus. As it is now, the sharpest focus seems to be just behind the main bloom.

I like the balance and juxtaposition of color and light.Well done. The only suggestion -- sharpen the subject slightly and defuse the background slightly.

I thank all for your comments. Much good advice here. Being somewhat new at this even I see there is much room for improvement.

Much appreciation ... Etone.
