Ooh, this is so elegant and beautiful, Nikolyn! Wonderful colors, composition and processing.

What an unusual flower in that it has such sharp beauty. The folded bloom has a sharp tip and the bloom that is unfurling looks like it has many sharp points to it's flowering crown. The textured overlay is the perfect compliment to this sharp pointed flower with it's scratched and aged surface. A bit late, but congrats on your 2nd place tie in the Flower contest that ended on 12/04/2014
