 "Colour and form" revisited.

Levels, curves, sharpen, USM, add border.

Tried to get a better contrast, also a bit more of image...
Responded to the "best" critique I had on the original.
This will be a case of "the original thing did better than the sequel" I am sure...


POST CHALLENGE

Thank you all for your votes. It did better than the original and that is great! I want to thank all who commented on the first take (and all other entries as well), you guys really helped me improve. A big thank you!

Great piece of graphical art. Photographically there is not a lot more you do with this. People will either love this or hate it. I am in the former camp. Good shot.

Nice work Pedro. I like the crop on this one better. More interest here.
I know one of the comments was to boost the saturation, but I think you went a little too far.

I like the composition and the colors work really well together. There's a bit of distracting reflection in the purple and red, but it's not too bad. Good job.
