 Shot deliberately for this challenge, about spit up my drink upon inverting it, laughing. I love playing with lens flare, and I hoped that the huuuuuge depth of field would show the detail of the mustard weed when inverted. I hope the voters dig it too. Processed through raw with DPP, intensified the contrast, unsharp mask and inverted.

I'm with you. The lens flare adds to the magical quality of this shot. It's a unicorn without the horn! :) I gave it a 7.

I absolutely HATE lens flare, so sorry but I think it completely destroys what could have been a good photo. Just wanted to explain why I gave this a 3.
