Lively flowers Sury. Really nice colours. Are they orchids?

Andy,
Thank you and yes, they are orchids. I lowered the flash exposure to minimize the
harsh flash reflection and took about half a dozen in order to get the "softest" possible
lighting with the HVL20 flash.

I especially like the last one, Sury. Very dramatic lighting. :)

Greg, Andy,
Thank you.

Here is another that is almost floating. Having a faint glimpse of stem gives it more
"grounded" feel, me thinks.

Nice flowers, Sury. :) You're really polishing your flower-shooting skills.

Gio67, those are some delicious-looking strawberries. : )
Nicely taken too.
