This was taken mid-morningLighting
The lighting was natural light inside a hothouseEquipment
I used my Canon 80D with my 100mm Canon macro lensInspiration
I have always enjoyed orchids and the beauty they bring to our livesEditing
I was using Photoshop Elements 11 at the time and probably just increased the blacks a little and decreased the luminance, no cropping, I rarely crop my imagesIn my camera bag
