This is pretty neat. I like the close up, and the lighting is great. WIsh we could see something done about the background. Maybe, since the majority of the photo is green, you could put some green leaves, like on a branch or something behind the flower to make the background flow and make it all the same. Just something to hide the house and fence. I like the placement of the flower in the photo. Nice job and good luck with the challenge.
I don't like to see the name of the challenge (new) used in the title... too cliche or something. There are lots of other, more creative ways to express it. Lots of flowers in this challenge, and your is one of the best ones. What an interesting color. Good light, good focus.
I suppose it meets the challenge but I do not think this appeals to a broad audience we have on DPC. For example, I personally cannot make a connection by looking at the image primarily because I do not know the difference between a new orchid vs. an old orchid...Maybe they look the same..I don't know.
This is a good photograph, but it's just not inspiring to me. This photo may have more impact if there was a dark or solid background behind it :) - jmsetzler
I like your subject and the various green tones but the building and fence (?) in the back are very distracting. I would've either completely blurred them or re-arranged the composition/ angle so they wouldn't be in the shot.
