Beautiful Duane. Lovely lighting and contrast. I love the depth of field you used for the orchid. Unknown is very cool since it looks like it's floating, love it! And the rose is just beautiful - the petal folds are so detailed, & I really like how it's one main rose as a feature subject, with lots of tiny buds below.

Beautiful set of white flowers....I like that you can see the texture on the Orchid....haven't been able to get one myself. Very nice work.

I have to agree with Mike in that the lighting is stunning, Duane, and you have captured these flowers beautifully. I really love the second one. I think it is because it seems suspended, and the contrast with the background is so strong! Nice work amigo.
