Orchid Blossom by jamibann

Orchid Blossom

A very uninspiring day yesterday, so I plucked a blossom from my orchid plant and moved it around the house, altering white balance and exposure until l got a photo that pleased me. This was taken in the bathroom and so I thought I'd sprinkle it with water. I liked the effect it gave me.

Thanks for all the nice comments and favs folks. I usually say in my comments if I've edited my photos, other than a crop, as I'm not much of a post-processor, so to speak! However, I didn't on this occasion .... bokeh and the slight frosted frame obtained courtesy of PicMonkey! Good question Gail.

@almondjoy1 Check out PicMonkey Joy, if you don't know it already. There are all sorts of effects you can add to your photographs. I don't use it often, but every now and then I 'jazz' up a dull photo with an effect of some sort.
