Spinning Stars

Saw this beargrass grouping and knew it would not make a very strong image on its own, but I thought I could play with it some. I created a layer to radial blur only the background.

I love the effect! Well done!
The radial blur creates a really nice background.
You have a good eye and a good imagination.

Flowers are a little hot, have you tried CS highlight recovery?
I also find that four flowers a bit much, have you tried one without the top right flower?

Very cool, although I find the transition from upper right flower stems to the radial blur is a bit too clunky. Smooooooooooooooooooottttttttttttth, brother!
