    Yes, that's it ! It's an amazing pink, hard to capture, changing with light, sometimes almost phosphorescent.
    Thank you.

    Beautiful work, Eric. Love the crispness in the line detail against the black - and the color looks accurate. Very nice shape for a C. labiata.

    Near perfection Eric. Just the right amount of everything one would expect from a graceful Cattleya such as this. AL
