When you did seleve desat, how did you get the flower inside the magnifying glass colored ? I remember that you do selective desat just for specific colors..

Looks great by the way :-)

Cool picture -- to be logically consistent with your title, you might consider reversing the desaturation (have the part in the lens B+W), since the "rest of us" would just see pretty flowers, while the botanist might see the structure/anatomy in a more coolly clinical manner.

When I read your post I expected to see a half assed picture. This shot is theme based, original and clever. To bad the person who gave you 1, isn't. What a shame that there are people giving marks like this just because they can.

Spectacular shot, I really can't figure why the 1, technically very strong and conceptually outstanding.

This is a great shot, had I voted in this subject I would have given you at least a nine. It's a sweet shot and super editing!

Meets the challenge fully, is in focus, and includes the study aspect. A 10/10

Clever idea, well pulled off (9).

Nice use of lens to show examination of flora (botany) not just flora itself but don't like selective desat here.
