    Looks like the flash made the color more true. Do you soften the flash when you use it to photograph blooms?

    Cheers,

    I'm with Diane, Nelson. Is the flower more green or white?

    Having never seen this baby before, I have to second the vote for whichever method better shows the plant's true color. You have the most ususual collection -- they are so beautiful and unique.
