Greetings from the Critique Club!

It's rather amazing the first thing I thought when this came up on my screen was, "HEY! Willy Wonka colors!" LOL, then I saw your title!

This is a well composed shot overall, you have the branches leading you from left to right, the only change I might make on cropping is to have the bottom left corner cropped right to the main branch so it leads you in either right from the corner or right above the corner. A better lead into the shot.

Also the clarity of the overall shot, there almost seem to be shadows or ghosts in some areas, not sure if that's from a long exposure or post processing but in it's own way it's good because it's making me look at it again and again to see if my eyes are playing tricks on me, nice illusion effect.

The hue and saturation do leave something to be desire for me personally. The colors or nice but they seem flat and a bit boring, a touch more contrast or levels adjustment might make them come alive just a bit more

Overall, a good shot with the potential to be a great shot!

Welcome to DPC!

I really wish you hadn't cut off the top of the flower.

Pretty. I think this picture is nice, and the perspective is good.

I think that if you waned to make the flower seem bigger you should take it from below the flower going up. Not in the middle and then cut off the top.

Nice ehteral feel to this, not sure what it represents but it does get the viewer involved with it and so it works

It would have been nicer if you hadn't messed with the color levels to make it purple

Really cool. I know the colors are fake but it's awesome. Nice angle too.
