EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Loriene Perera, the vibrant beauty of Vanda Miss Joaquim orchids takes center stage. These exquisite flowers, known as Singapore's national flower, are showcased during the Orchid Extravaganza 2019 floral display at Gardens by the Bay in Singapore. The timing of this extravagant display is significant as it commemorates two important milestones for the country. Firstly, it celebrates the 200th anniversary of Stamford Raffles' arrival to the island, a pivotal moment in Singapore's history that marked its transformation into a thriving metropolis. Secondly, it anticipates and honors Singapore's upcoming National Day. Against a backdrop of lush greenery and delicate petals in various shades of pink and purple, these Vanda Miss Joaquim orchids symbolize resilience and grace – qualities that resonate deeply with both nature enthusiasts and patriotic citizens alike. Perera's expertly composed photograph captures every intricate detail of these stunning blooms; their velvety texture seems almost tangible through her lens. The play between light and shadow adds depth to each petal while highlighting their natural contours. This image serves as a reminder not only of Singapore's rich botanical heritage but also its ability to flourish amidst challenges. It encapsulates both the nation's past achievements and its promising future ahead – an inspiring testament to perseverance and growth.
