I really like this composition! What makes it work for me, besides the basic shape and color, is the fact there's life in the background. And that leaf in the upper left. Very crisp detail on the leading petals of the flowers, and nice warmth and tones. My only nit is the artifacting on the edges left by the Topaz and really, that kinda fits the image. I do find that Topaz has a tendency to add a bit more noise than I might like. Not sure if a touch of a blur brush might soothe that or just make a mess. :-)

I really like the way you cropped this - the table takes the center, but only so it has a better view of the scenery beyond. The painting setting really adds a lot to the original - I like the effect on the water and the sky especially.

I really like the PP here. It makes it look almost like a quilted scene. Coming from a quilter, that is a huge compliment.

This looks really cool! I'm not sure I'm a fan of the patchwork dark blues throughout the trees but I guess that's due to the filter and in any case would be an extreme pain to edit out :P
