Phalaenopsis Orchid For Sale in a Grocery Store (2019-07-26 14-55-19_01)

The photo was taken at the Whole Foods store at 2748 Green Bay Road, Evanston, Illinois.
There are about 70 species in the genus Phalaenopsis. They are commonly called Moth Orchids and are native to Asia and Oceania.
Editing was done using ACDSee Ultimate 2019. I adjusted the lighting, increased the contrast, clarity and sharpness, reduced then noise and, finally, adjusted the white balance and the levels.

No luck at all, I have tried many times. This is an amazing color.
They had a couple of different colors there. I haven’t had a chance to work on those yet.
my wife has a black thumb. So any plant that enters our home, dies. Usually very quickly.
I’m great with some but the Grim Reaper for others.
We are sadly the grim reaper for most.
You have zoomed it, it appears. Wonder what it will look like when the size is normal.
It’s a medium-sized flower. One flower is filling the entire frame.
my answer to your question is NO
