Nice composition, very crisp and graphic. I don't know if it's legal, but when "cropping" the image in photoshop, you can correct perspective problems (the un-level lines in the background) by making a selection, then chosing "Free Transform" then holding the command-key (or control on a PC) down when you drag one of the handles -- this will allow you to distort the image non-uniformly. Since it doesn't involve a mask, and you can get the selection by doing "select all", it should be legal.

Interesting shot with an abstract feel to it.

Comment by Neil:
Nice shot overall, but a bit overexposed at the tip, and its basically a flower macro first, and thus does not give the feel of an abstract. The forms are there, but this is a good example of why things that are too recognizable are not perceived as abstract.
