Answering the Day's Call, above, is another new photo, just re-visioned yesterday. I'm still not sure about that "light" being brighter in the upper left corner. One can see it as the "light" echoed in the orchid centers, but I also find it distracting. (I did try muting it by mouse in the paint program, but it's too large an area and did not come out well.)

In the Gloaming, below, is another version of the same photo. I cropped out that bright light in the upper left corner. Which then, of course, changed the mood. So I changed the color accordingly. (It could probably use a total re-cropping from the orignal; it feels a little unbalanced to me. Maybe I'll do it someday.)

Study in Orchid, below, is a different shot, from an oh-so-slightly different angle, and obviously cropped way down. I kept coming up against distracting aspects that were just too much to paint out by mouse for this old hand. So I kept cropping. I may go back someday and work harder at getting the same sketch-like effect with a larger crop.
