Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...what a beauty Linda! I am so far behind since I have been out of town. I am glad that I finally caught up with this one though. The colors are so softly muted against the black background. I like how the orchid is ruffled aorund the edges of the bloom. It is such a classy flower and you have presented it well here. Thank you for sharing it with us. I hope that your Easter was peaceful :~)
Thank you also for your recent visit to ~soft pink~. I saw this rose, stopped the car. grabbed my camera, jumped out and took a quick shot while Mother Nature's sun was providing the last bit of golden light on the flower. I am so glad that you enjoyed it. That is the main reason that I take pictures is so others can enjoy them. Your support, comments and critiques are deeply appreciated :~)
The simplicity of this presentation makes this beautiful orchid a winner. The colour is so deleicate and you have managed to capture that sparkly sheen that only ochids seem to have, to perfection.
All of earth is crammed with heaven And every bush aflame with God But only those who see take off their shoes. - Elizabeth Barrett Browning<p>

This is beautiful. I like the way the lavender contrasts against the black, and the detail is good also! Nice job!
