While watching India beating England at Cricket last Sunday, I noticed this really nice light on these orchids standing next to the TV.

    Agree nice light but think the BG orchids confuse them a little bit- lovely orchid BTW.

    Fast response Brian mwink.gif I've only just posted :D

    Thanks for your comments!

    The missus would have my whatsis for garters if I chopped the flowers off rolleyes1.gif

    I'll try this afternoon with a much larger aperture - these were at F10.

    I've just noticed that the colours of this orchid were very different last year:

    Thanks Kevin! I often miss these cool light shots - I tend to just whack everything with flash.
