Reason: Nominated recently (here). Updated based on feedback, but uploaded the new version shortly before the nomination period ended. I should've just opened another nomination at that point, probably. Alas. On the advice of someone who abstained last time, and since there were no opposes, I'll give this another shot.
It's a dark purple Trichoglottis orchid (Trichoglottis atropurpurea) at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Oppose too dark and concerns of the lack of focus on the flowers. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:18, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support although I do recognize a focusing issue on the flowers, it has very high EV. Mattximus (talk) 22:54, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – I think the background ~~is now too dark. It was better~~ was good in this version: [1]. Also some cropping of the top and right sides would highlight the flowers as the main subject, I think it would be an improvement. Bammesk (talk) 14:43, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
