[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This cattleya was photographed from my local grocery store. Orchids, once considered rare and expensive, are now easy to find and affordable.

Cattleya is a genus of 42 species of orchids widely known for their large, showy flowers. The typical flower has a conspicuous lip with a fringed margin and sometimes various markings and specks. At the base, the fringed margins are folded into a tube. Each flower stalk originates from a pseudobulb. The number of flowers varies; it can be just one or two, or sometimes up to ten.

Colourful capture!
The palette here makes this specimen very eye-catching, and it is captured with this fine crisp-soft feeling I like so much in flower photography...

Hi Danilo, Now I know what a cattleya looks like. I read Proust: "A la recherche du temps perdu" and his was talking about this flower that he put on his lover's coat lapel.

And as usual your photo is superb! Great macro with lovely and well saturated colours and very sharp!

Well done! Yan :)

ps: many thx for your crit on "Grande-Allee and the Chateau Frontenac". It's very appreciated.

hi danilo,
nice colors and nice flower,
good work.
congrulations.

Great macro shot Danilo. Strong, vivid colours. Good sharpness. I like semi diagonal composition. It is a dynamic image.
