Canon EOS 40D, Aperture-Priority, TV 0.5, AV 32 (used a tripod), Center-Weighted Average metering mode, ISO 250 (inside a conservatory), EF 180mm Macro Lens, 180.0mm Focal length. My Mom passed last fall and her two really close sister right before her. Growing up we always did everything with our 3 families - it was great. All three of them were beautiful women - just like the orchids. This picture required horizontal framing, and filling the frame. It also follows the rule of 3rds as well as 3 is pleasing to the eye.
