Multi Colored Flower Thing

Comment by Pug-H:
This seems quite a departure for you - a flower. It's an iris of some sort.

Nobody expects Riley's Inquisition. Amongst his weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, and an almost fanatical devotion to pulling petals off flowers....

Again popped her out a bit, erasing back the background. Warming filter applied again, erasing back the teeth to keep 'em white, then applied a glow with a saturation bump in it, erasing back here eyes and mouth at about 50% before flattening the image.

Don't hesitate to jump on black & white here too:

Only thing I'd say not to lose in the conversion is the highlights in her hair.

Very similar to the PP of IMG_7663.jpg, but the colors here were just a bit odd.
I ended up doing a slight CCW rotation, rebuild of blank canvas areas after the crop, then obviously a toned b&w conversion.

Might have helped to add:

Nice pose, but overall it's kinda' "flat". I applied a luminosity gradient to lighten the top a bit more from the upper left, erasing back in her arm in the lower left to bring it back. I applied an overall boost in saturation, contrast & brightness to pop it a bit more, added a warming tone to help the skin color, erasing her teeth back to no warming, then did a light vignette to focus the brightness on her. You know, the old 2min edit thing...
