One half of this photo is real. It was shot at 1:1 magnification using a 60mm Macro lens handheld. What you are seeing is the mid rib of the Tulip petal. Everything else has been made to fall on itself making the whole thing a great color wash. Just making good use of what nature offers.

I then flipped the photo and combined to give it a wine cup like look. Other than this, there is absolutely no trickery involved. I will post later another one with a nice throat of the wine glass as well.

Perfect wine cup/goblet shape - and full of golden nectar too! Very inventive and beautifully done Ram.

Very creative-I really like the glowing colors. Would never have guess the origin- thanks for the explanation.
