Returning for comments:
Very nice study and even better by moving subject away to subdue the texture on the background. Nice comp. Bumping up.

A shallower DOF to blur out the texture in the background would have emphasized your subject more IMO.

Good luck :)

this sounds ironic...however...i feel there is too much yellow, nothing really jumps out at you, the wall and the flower seem to mesh together...well..it meets the challange alright

Very nice image, although the yellow on yellow drops some of the detail from the flowers.

Cool flower, but it would be better against a contrasting color

I think the flower would have "popped" more if this had been shot against a different colour backdrop. That strong yellow in the background is overpowering the orchid.

the yellow background takes away from the wonderful coloration in the bloom.
