Blinded Orchids

Mel was gifted a lovely orchid back in May, I think, and it is now in its second blooming. It's on the kitchen table and I delight in looking at it as I sit and savor a mug of hot, black coffee or enjoy a meal.

I shot this photograph in the afternoon, with the blinds mostly closed. I enjoyed the straight lines of the blinds contrasting with the sensuous curves of the orchids.

And ... because I'm having a helluva good time working with different effect filters, I applied a watercolor effect on this photograph.

Happy Thursday!
