[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Plumeria flowers are most fragrant at night in order to lure sphinx moths to pollinate them. The flowers have no nectar, and simply dupe their pollinators. The moths inadvertently pollinate them by transferring pollen from flower to flower in their fruitless search for nectar.

Hi Hien,
It is difficult to get the correct exposure with white flowers against a dark BG. Cameras quickly decide to underexposure the entire photo so to meet the 18% grey. This also happend with yours. The histogram shows that most of the data is left of the mid tones causing the white of the flowers to look a bit dark. This can be fixed by exposure correction while taking the photo or by adjusting the levels in your PP work. In the WS I have adjusted the levels on highlights untill I met de first white dots. Beside the technical part, the composition and sharpness are good. The entire presentation is a pleasure to look at.
TFS,
Niek
