Jason this is an interesting view creative to say the least!!!!

Not sure how it would work but would try a tighter crop to do away with some of the right and bottom?
Wold make the flower more prominent and a stronger composition

Sure do like your idea!!!!!

Interesting perspective. I agree that a crop off the right and bottom might make a stronger image.
Thanks for posting,

You aleady know that I love stuff like this!

I like the abstract and that "different kind of world" feel that it has, and if there were one thing that I would do with it (just my opinion) would be to crop the darker stem on the right side out. I get the feel of it being a tad out of balance with that showing as is and with the rest of the image. Now, if it were more OOF and blending a little more, then that would be fine. (Again, just an opinion and my taste buds talking.)

The overall comp and effects, the lighting, ...................... I sure like it!!

Thanks for posting Jason!

This is a little busy for my tastes. If you could isolate the graceful central flower, this would be a dynamite image. Thanks for sharing.

I agree with cropping out the darker stem on right and a little off the bottom here. I love the translucent quality of the light around and through the flower and IMHO concentrating on this are of the image makes for a much stronger impact! The colour tones are a real eye catcher.
