overprocessed ... blah-de-blah-de-blah ... but IMHO a very good image - photography should be about creativity and artistic re-presentation so getting a 6 from me.

Truly beautiful. Some sort of sea change must have happened around here for this to end up close to 5.8, and in a Free Study to boot! I really expected to see this at the bottom of the pile. The voters have summer madness perhaps? Let's hope it's not a fly-by-night fancy and DPC really has changed...in any case, congrats on having this lovely, striking image be so well-received!

By the way, the other word that comes to mind as I look at this is "Encore!". Maybe like Monet, you can do multiple studies of this vase, this location, at different times of the day/week/month. Show us the light.

I had a difficult time finding the 7th stem. I would be interested to see the original photograph before processing.

The sparkles on the cut end suggest caution if considering eating the thing.

I love this kind of image. Love the processing. I think these are rosehips?
