Have someone with a beautiful hand cup it. Then shoot it narrow with an uncluttered background.
Just a thought.

Another dull day, but before the rain set in we had quite a nice walk this morning.

For Marcell, a wild orchid

Hehehe - I've had a few days off work Doc Thanks to the Jubilee and some holiday I carried over from last year. Lots of opportunities for walks in the woods - just as long as it stops raining!

Love your work Birma, I think I like the Iris best but it's neck and neck.

Birma,
Looks like you are truly inspired by the photos on the thread. You are welcome.
I am enjoying them very much. Looking forward more of those wonderful captures.

With best regards,

Thanks Birma for the wild orchid. Actually this species (I think Dactylorhiza fuchsii) is quite rare in Hungary and I've never seen.
Unfortunately, I don't know any good spot for wild orchids near to Leipzig and when I will go next time to Hungary the season will be over. So I post some old pictures from previous years:


Anacamptis pyramidalis



It's also an old photo but I took on the same time (Not orchid but a Dictamnus sp.):

Marcell, Wow!hiccup! Great set. I tremendously enjoyed them. Second one is superb. Now I am going back into my "darkroom" and never coming back.
What's the point!!!

With best regards,
Sury
