This one's an interesting pattern, I like the way you have placed the centre of the plant off centre in the frame. I often wonder at how saturated your colours are, do you increase the saturation in Photoshop? The only thing about this pic that could be better is the sharpness, it hasn't got that biting sharpness you get in your landscape shots.

Geoff, I pumped up the saturation for this picture in PS because i think "Abstract" pattern shots could still carry off the over saturation.


Arrgh!! VR still did not enable me pin sharp shots!
