The photos of these three paphs were taken under a 125W wide spectrum CFL, which made the colors really pop. Other than resizing and cropping, the only retouching was the Photoshop removal of a spike clip that interfered with the image of Shirly Amundson...

Paph. Xanthophyllum (hookerae x mastersianum)



Paph Shirley Amundson (acmodontum x hookerae)



Paph Hawaii Wings (hennisieanum x mastersianum)

What great pictures - sure makes you question realism in photography when it comes to some orchid photos (or anything else actually!)

Nice Photos. I see that Paph mastersianum give the flowers a bit of a gloss and the nice green dorsal sepal. I was lucky to get a flask of Paph mastersianum late last year.
