I like the multi-dimensional qualities in this image. The backlighting helps the colors of the orchid pop, and the frosted layer creates a lovely floating look in the water drops. Well done:)

I like this one the best out of all your pink orchid shots. Beautiful clarity, color, lighting, and presentation.
Very eyecatching!
TFS

Hi Jens, very nicely executed. The light shows of so many details and the image has good colour and depth. TFS,
