Thank you Diane, Colette, Darren, Cora, and Dale Ann !

Darren, I bought the orchid at Frank's Nursery (they might be a national chain), I guess I was fortunate to get solid white :).

I spent the last couple of weeks paring down the mask (just about pixel by pixel, lol) so that there could be maximum contrast between the black background and the white petals. Glad you like it :) #556469
