 Rather limited in my subject choices since I broke my ankle in 3 places, so this is from a Get Well flower arrangement. Quite a variety of flowers in the arrangement but the structure of these really appealed to me. Toning in the background is from light through the window on my laminate (fake wood) floor. Turned out kind of cool, but then I adore shallow DOF flower shots.

PP - converted from RAW, cropped slightly, split tone, levels, contrast, cloned out some sensor/lens dust spots, slight vignette, tonemapped in qtpfsgui (mantiuk method) and erased all but foreground flowers and merged, blurred background more, resized, USM.
