Re: First of the new year
Absolutely gorgeous! I adore the unique arrangement, lighting and gorgeous pinks set off beautifully by the background.

Re: First of the new year
Chauncy, I really like this image. I think the black bg and whatever lighting you used helps to show off the blooms.

Re: First of the new year
I like that arrangement, Chauncey. That would make a good valentine's card. If you put one of those sprays on one of Mike's wine glasses ... or better, yet, on one of his broken wine glasses ...

Re: First of the new year
Great shot, William! I really love this one...the black background is just the right one for this colour.
Greg...a broken wine glass will not be suitable for this kind of shot -- especially if it has just landed heavily on your partner's head. Too much excitement I should say...

Re: First of the new year
I don't know anything about orchids, but I'm surprised the petals aren't at least somewhat translucent. All of the back lighting seems to be blocked by the petals.

Re: First of the new year
Beautiful arrangement and stunning presentation, William. Only where the two stems meet does it look like there was image manipulation.

Re: First of the new year
Fabulous William. In my neck of the woods we'd refer to this as "picture perfect"
Great shot.

Re: First of the new year
Yes and no...I used heavy copper wire with thread to form the stems, removed in PP.where the two stems meet does it look like there was image manipulation.
It is quite subtle Mike, there were two of these...http://www.amazon.com/Mighty-Bright-...ght+book+light and lots of reflected lighting off the walls and ceiling.I'm surprised the petals aren't at least somewhat translucent
As usual it was stacked and merged to 60" wide. Thanks for the kind words folks.
