The Best Orchid From borneo

Last Saturday i went to the Borneo Orchid Exhibition at Tanjung Aru Beach (Beach 1) Aka Anjung Perdana. i actually reached there around 1.00pm and ready to take some photos. Guess what happen? Huh when i went in to the orchid garden or S**** i forgot to attached my Compact Flash Card to my camera.

So i don’t have any other choices other than go back to my home for the compact flash card. Because of that i have to postponed my schedule to 5.00 Pm.

So i took severals nice photo. here there are.

Orchid From Borneo

Notice the blur technique, instead of just taking the flower alone i decided to capture the twig so that the photo look even more beautiful and live.

The best Orchid from Kota Kinabalu

often we saw people capture the main subject rather then the main object, however i decided to focus the background rather than the main subject. With the white green colour combination it makes the photo look refreshing.

See the background of the photo, it’s blurry with a nice texture of the net. this is another close up photo. The colour composition look very soft.

Rare Species orchid

This is not an orchid, this is a dead twig that have a very unique presentation, i just can’t stay away from taking this nice flora.

For your information all photos taken used my Canon DSLR Rebel XT or Canon350D with 8.0mp Resolution. There is no setting changed here. Other than that i am using Canon 18-55MM Lens to do the close up.

What do you think about the photo? like it? do let me know in the comment section.

P/s All Photo Uploaded here are original size and there is no doctored photos. (The only thing i did was to resize the photo)

Benny, That’s more like it. On the photos, i like the last one, it looks like a coral. If I may add, try using gallery2 for the photos, it looks much nicer - just my dua sen laa
