Wow, I hadn't thought of entering a bird of paridise for this challenge. Perfect natural occurance of complementary colours. Nice soft lighting. Can't help but wonder how this would have looked as a high key image, my personal tast of course. Well done and good luck. 7

This would have been really neat with a backlight to give more of a glow to the leaves

Wow, I love this. Unique shapes and nice colors. The white part is moderately distracting but I don't think there's really anything that can be done about that.
