Hot Orchid:

Was at the boston Flower show, and came away with a few foto of flowers will post them from time to time: Thanks and I hope it meets with your standards:

It's actually quite nice. Lovely colors if I do say so. Looks like pretty nice focus too. It's not as sharp as it could be. Was this post-processed?

little soft otherwise nice.

I think it's a pretty good shot. Interesting looking flower. I might have a twisted mind, but it looks like that flower has a penis. :)

Feels a bit oof for me, soft at least. Also, i feel like the lighting is a bit to harsh. Sometimes the best light for flower macros is a nice cloudy day. The bg is also a bit noisy for me, distracting from the flower. Also, take more of an angle to the flower so that you dont compress the flower into 2 dimensions instead of 3. Show the length of the pistil and stamen.
