 A cosmos flower in a puddle after a rainstorm. Looked sad to me. Yellow flowers are usually quite cheery so the contrast between the color and the pose (as it were) interested me.

Had all my extension tubes on (36mm + 20mm + 12mm).

PP - cropped, levels, resized, sharpened, added border.

This is a very interesting photo with lots to look at. I like the leading line on the green stem. All the reflections and textures provide a lot of depth to the photo. Propably not a good shot for the "3 second look and vote" mentality!
