Yeah, I have noticed that every single picture you've ever posted has been blurry. What type of camera do you have? Depending upon your camera type, there are various solutions to your issue. The pictures always seem to be focused on the background and not the plant in the foreground. If the camera has an auto focus, maybe start with that, which with all my previous cameras has been to just hold down half way the button you push to take the picture until it focuses, then push all the way down. If that doesn't help, you might want to try posting to the photography section and see if anyone (Ross) can help you! Look forward to seeing some great pictures from you!

Hi Sheridan!!!!
Those three orchids are nice! Great prices, too. Have you ordered from them before? Are they near blooming size? Great haul! So what did you order from ebay?

Wink New 'Chids' on the block

Frank thanks for the great info my camera is a FUJI Digital and I am still learning how to use it I have been using the Macro button which focuses on the item not the background. The last I think I moved .

Kiki-do thanks for the kind words. This is the first time I have ordered from them and I am very pleased I would recommend them for sure They arrived in great shape and they are close by in the state of Washington. I am in Oregon that was one reason I ordered from them.
I don't remember if they were labeled BS or what I would have to go back to the site to check.

Check them out Olympia Orchids on Google they are located in Lynwood, Washington.

The other orchid I purchased on bid on e-bay was
Species Riverbend x Zuma Beach Large in spike blooming

I know when you use the flash it doesn't take as nice of a picture, but it would definitely help with the shaking! You can move just about as much as you want when using flash and it should come out pretty nicely! Other than that, I might suggest stabilizing the camera somehow, on a stack of books, or something like that. I try not to use the flash for my pictures and I don't have a tripod, so I just stack up things and put the camera on that. Hope that helps some!
