Beautiful capture Helle. What does the text say?

Oh my, such saturated pop-out hues, those purples are some of the finest I've seen in an orchid shot, and your vignetting is like a treasured keepsake from your great-grandmother's bureau. The emergence of that front flower is beautiful, while the softer focus of the others is just right. (With an almost abstract background of plants and window, I presume---so bright and supportive of the flowers.) And your text? It's random letters, looking very type-written (ie, with the irregular layout that only typewriters produced), and once again you've incorporated text into your visuals in a wholly natural way, creating a quiet visual drumbeat behind this beautiful vignetted picture. A beautiful and so delicate image. Your montages and blends are a total joy.

("vignette" literally meant a "small vine," and it was most likely named because vignettes were originally vine drawings or carvings. They came to mean a small precious piece of art separated from everything else...thus a 'vignette'. You've done that so brightly and beautifully here.)
