Diamonds and Gold

Processed with Topaz Adjust. Started with the Psychedelic preset and took off from there.

Hi Ed,You picked an neat subject with interesting manipulation. I'm most attracted to the flower which has nice water droplets and is mostly sharp. In this case I would have preferred a sharper stem or a shorter one due to it's competition with the flower head. Part of the competition is due to it being out of focus and dominant. The backround is nicely muted but I would eliminate the line to the right of the flower head.

Ed, I think this is great! It almost has a grunge look to it! Very nicely done. I do agree w/ Dave regarding the stem.

I can see where Dave's heading with the stem. Makes sense. Great to see so much excellent work in OOTB. Thanks for sharing Ed. :) I'd crop about half from the RHS negative space. :)
