Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 400

 This first started off as a mistake - the pretty flowers were very underexposed. Once I played with it in PhotoShop for a bit, I ended up really liking it though.

Editing: crop, hue/sat, contrast, USM, neat image, USM. Oh, and one of the petals in the foreground had a slight rip in it, so I fixed it up.

Yay, highest score so far! Thanks :)

This is really neat - incredibly surreal and beautiful. I like this!

This is very pretty. Wouldn't it be nice to actually have flowers that had the range of purples and blues here. The colors and composition are great!

I like the dark tone of this shot, and how the flowers in the back just peek out from nothingness (is that a word?). The one in the upper left could be a bit sharper; it seems much softer than the rest.

I like the lighting, but just a bit too much purple for me.

I would like to see this photo in it's natural colors ...

Very interesting, it really makes me wonder if this is the natural color. Nice job not centering the flowers.
