About the Image(s)
This is a picture of an orchid I had blooming. The more I looked at it, the more it looked like an angel!
This was taken with an iPhone.
F2.2
ISO 40
29mm
I sharpened the photo a bit in Snapseed, and brightened the area of the angel. I then blurred the background in PhotoRoom, and finally added a frame in Carbon.
This round’s discussion is now closed!

I had exactly the same Orchid but it promptly died when I moved house!!!
I know it can be quite a challenge getting a shot of just one flower because of the way they grow but you have managed it very well. I think it looks more like a little Cossack dancer rather than an angel!! It is lovely and sharp and the exposure has been handled well. I like the post processing you have done as it makes the flower the centre of attraction.
Only thing that might have improved it, in my opinion, is not to have cut off the top of petal but well done.
