Shot indoors, and part of what I liked was the odd flatness almost illustrative quality of the colors and the haloing the light gave the petals of the unedited original (above).
I dont know I would have edited it differently, but lighting that is too similar to editing errors seems to be an error.

Great composition, i'm not too keen on the green halo around the edges of the flower though....maybe the jpg compression is too severe?

Pretty! Some artifacts and haloing around the flower though.

Great color and composition. I think in your processing you have smoothed out the textures a bit too much. Whether through de-noise or whatever process you used. It just doesn't look natural and it is over-processed in that respect. It might be over-sharpened because I can see some digital artifacts around the outlines of the petals, leaves and stem. (perhaps that is due to the processing on the sky.

This almost seems backlit. I love the sharpness. Makes the nature shots really pop when they are tack sharp.
