 Pure, natural backlighting. For Post-processing, if I remember correctly, I rotated and cropped, played with levels, hue/sat and curves, plus some dodge and burn, plus a pass of NI and USM. Used a softlight overlay to enhacnce the colors.

Beautiful translucency. Great colors. Left corner shadows a little disturbing.

This is one where I think the centered composition works. Also, very interesting texture on the petals.

I like how it fills the frame. It has the pow factor.
