Albert, This is lovely! The colors and texture work wonderfully together. I'd be interested to see what happens if you took some off of the top with a crop and return the image to a standard 3x2 crop. Very nice processing...

A texture was applied over the high key image. The blending mode set to soft light. With a layer mask I revealed some of the detail in the petals and stamens from the original image. Thank you all for the encouraging comments.
