    I like the idea and I like the color contrast, I may go in tighter. I think the bluish/green in the upper right hand corner is a little distracting.

    I think it's a cool looking abstract. I might evict the brown spot in the LRC. The original image is completely gone but this still reminded me of a plant. Nicely done.

    I love abstracts but this one feels a bit to "willy nilly" to me. I wish it had one main focal point or a few larger spots that took up more of the image. Love you going out on a limb though!

    Hi Grahame. I like this kind of abstract that allows the original subject to come through also. Nice choice of colors too.

    Grahame, I really like that Nik filter. I love the colors and the little stamens remind me of abstract jellyfish
    or pacmen:) It has a whimsical feel to it that I like.
