Stunning. Nice to see such good DOF. Excellent clarity. Perfectly composed, and nicely processed.

Well done as a work of digital art. I would love to see the preprocessed image. :smile:

Okay Phil, you asked for it. Took this in 2011 so I was surprised I had cropped so much of the original. Continued the post processing this a.m. with Topaz.

Beautiful.. I especially like how the various patterns bring the eye up through the image.

Great artistic entry for this theme, Patricia! The filter you used really helps accentuate the interesting shapes and textures in this flower back. I like the color contrasts and the great lighting in this too. Creative re-use of your original image. Nice job! :smile:

I don't do this type of photography, but I can sure appreciate the beauty of the work from those folks who can & do. With that said, this is gorgeous all the way around, Patricia. Thanks for sharing it. :cool:
