[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I found this sitting around in my files, so decided it needed to do something:) It is a shot of my orchid when it was in full bloom. Right now the plant is resting and without any sign of a new flower stem, but seeing this was a pleasant reminder.

PP: adjusted contrast a bit, resized, sharpened, added border.
