Purple Laelia

Description

Continuing my theme of Macro Flower Photography, I have a purple Laelia orchid. I wanted to showcase the middle blossom as the subject. The problem with flower photography is they usually have vivid green and yellow backgrounds from the foliage which immediately draw attention from the eye. To minimize this, darken and desaturate those colors to keep focus on your subject.

A side note, people love looking at groups of 3, so try to find a pleasing composition of 3 subjects or 1 main and 2 alternate subject.
