I like this . especially with all the ghostly orchids in the background.

I have always found it difficult to take shots like these as the there is such a range of depth in the plants and the individual elements make depth of field very difficult.

An amazing plant for sure. The flash here Is quite bare and 'in yer face' ....have you looked at some of the diffuser products available, even for the built in unit ..... A softer effect would have helped here.
