I liked how closely the profile of this plant resembled the heraldic symbol Fleur de Lis -- with the harsh backlighting and boring background (houses, freeway, trees) I made sure BG was blurry and pushed the colors around.

Paul, I love that you have a print available for this! I have to agree with Abra as I also gave this a 6 and am surprised to see it with the ignoble, elusive brown ribbon.
I like the colors. IMO I would not center the subject. Move it to the left or to the right a tad when you frame in your image. Becareful with shadows, on my monitor they look really dark and are distracting. I do like the glow in leaf it gives it some interest!
