This has a great almost abstract feel to it - love the combination of colours and shapes

One of those pictures that some people will love but many more will hate (I should now I tried the same with a shot entitled blue daffodil in a challenge a few weeks back)

Dont look at the score, look at the comments and then reflect on the fact that you have produced an image that has really made some people stop in their tracks and go wow

Photography (imo) is about touching people and this image will do that for some and you cant (again imo) ask for much more than that

A bit strong on the processing for some, I'm sure, but you really did create another world out of a flower shot - very cool!

Love the deep tones of this version. I think I'd crop it about the cut leaf though.

Great improvement here! Adds a lot of interest with this edit. I like the purplish tint in the background, though it seems a bit unreal, but it goes with the edit nicely. I think the one change I'd make is the highlight on the bottom... broken leaf? It seems to stand out and draw attention to a difference in the lighting to me.

I have played with Colorize before and have never liked the outcome, this I have to admit is fantastic..
