The light and focus need work

Kind of soft, but lovely and works for this photo, wondering if thats what you were going for?

3 - Trying to either feature a particular part/flower on this orchid and/or else more attention paid to composition and angle, as well as no blur and variation in lighting, make this much better in my opinion.

Lots of potential here.

It feels like it is in the middle of being a very soft shot or a sharp shot. I think it would work both ways, but right now it is just sort of in the middle. I also think it could have maybe benifited from some bruning around the edges to draw your eye into one particualr flower.

Also this is my nitpick, and diffrent people have diffrent opinions, but I would like to see the entire flower with nothing cut off in the crop.
