The processing is absolutely outstanding. You really have a way of making things pop.

It's actually a bright yellow flower that I desaturated 90%ish. I kept the right side, because that's the stem of the flower. Had it not been a Fallen challenge, I probably would have cropped it out.

Lovely composition, just the RHS seems a bit overexposed

That is a pretty thought. It's brighter than I would be comfortable with because I am not a big fan of high key images. The bright and high contrast would look great as a print, but it bothers my eyes on a screen. It's not the image, it is just my thoughts. I like the composition.
