Abstracty lily

I don't post much and I figured I'd put something new up. Yeah, the title is a made up word :)
This straight from the camera with only levels and saturation changed afterwards. It's the edge of a petal.

Hey Chris, I like soft abstracts flowewr shots like, I'm getting ready to post one right now. I like this it has a nice strong line in a good position. Like the color combo.

Chris,

It's good to see you on the forum. Like the multiple soft colors and the flow of this image. Well done IMO.
Thanks for sharing...

Very pleasing image, Chris. It kind of has a 3D look to it.

Chris, I love the DOF and the angle that you photographed this flower at. It's really lovely! I do, personally, feel it's a little flat in contrast. I opened your image in PS and applied an "auto" curves adjustment and this is what it produced. Your image is more subtle; this one has a bit more lightness. I think both work but wanted to show you an alternative...

[Chris Ober]

I like the repost much better Thanks!
The auto-color thing in The Gimp didn't do anything nearly as appealing.
