 Flower with some screwed up background. Most time i ever spend on a photo since coming to digital. Macroes in on the flower. Pretty picture in its original form.

I don't really like the use of the filter (or at least I think it is a filter). Beautiful simplicity though.

Nice flower. I'm not against digital editing at all, but I don't think this one works for me at all. I do understand the idea of presenting all but the flower in "chaos", and think some points are earned for creative thinking....I'm just not crazy about the photo.

I don't personally care for the realistic flower against the background filter. It says "distracting" to me, but not "chaos".

I don't think the filter adds to the composition nor does it help define the picture for the challenge. It is so unnatural that it makes it hard for me to look at it. Sorry.

Wow, This is very nice. You'll probably get a bunch of negative comments about the filter use, but I like it. Good job!

Interesting method to produce background chaos. Works well with a flower as main subject. Nice use of the ROT. The stamin is a little out of focus and that hurts this image some. I always evaluate images independent of challenge so asked myself if this image is good even if there were no challenge. My answer is yes. Great job.

This is quite an interesting and well photographed image, but I'm not sure that the quite pretty effect you've used as your background really suggests chaos.

Nice concept, simple effect, good to see. Is there anything more to say. (8)

Too digital art for me... the artifacting around your selection looks very clumsy. Composition and crop don't work for me. Perhaps a tighter crop to the top and left of your flower would have helped. Flower isn't sharp enough.

Too digital artsy-ish for my tastes here.
