Jodi, it looks like you girls found a Bonanza on your outing. Great title as it indeed does look like this orchid is a bird in flight.It's fun watching you display your "catches of the day" for us. #1100490

Jodi....great comp. on this...love the long crop! I didn't even attempt these ones! I really like the dark rich colors. I wish that one 'wing' wasn't so bright, but I'm at a loss with Corel to suggest anything to fix it. A cool title too! Were these the ones that were being blown by the fan too? :~) #7302534Debbra Bailey March 19, 2009
Jodi, Beautiful work! I like the long crop, the colors, the composition... great title too!! And I like the vingette :) It brings that black in the upper left corner all the way around! #7303243Esther R. Tinz March 19, 2009
