Took some macro shots at the local park today, and this lily bud caught my eye. Thought it had very dynamic look to it, as it begins the process of unflolding. The lower curled extension kind of looked like an arm flexing its muscle. Crop, CS5, surface blur & darkened BG, cleaned up some spots, some burning to tone down higlights & Topaz Detail to sharpen.

Nice comp, patterns, and sharpness. The bud also stands out nicely against the background. Well done.
