I took this pic a few weeks ago and uploaded it to commons. Brian0918 cleaned up some of the problems in the sky, and I really like the result. The image is used in Apricot. - Gentgeen 09:28, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Support. Not your average flower pic (1 flower in focus per pic). I'm still not sure how some of those shadows were made.  :)  BRIAN0918  15:32, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Mmmm, not bad. Support. --SPUI (talk) 15:39, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. There's just something not appealling to my eye about the positioning of the flowers... a little too cluttered. Enochlau 01:11, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. I think it is the fill-in flash that makes it look a little odd to me. There also appears to be a drop shadow against the sky, which is presumably a digital camera artifact. The composition on the non-falsh version is nicer, although this one is more successful overall. -- Solipsist 08:06, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose This is just a run-of-the-mill photo, certainly not FP standard. There are much better photos of flowers to be found. Just take a look at List of Orchidaceae genera, where some strikingly beautiful photos are to be found. JoJan 15:19, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Looks artificial. Junes 08:54, 4 Apr 2005 (UTC)
