Comments appreciated, just know that I did not modify curves before uploading.

Well now you have one more fave.
 
If you can get a decent shot, chances are that people will like it ... even if it is simple.

Thanks guys!

I'm working on another pic right now. It was a touch more difficult as Photoshop can't determine the difference between pollen and leaves, so I had to mask a part of it. Will upload soon (I'm going to try and find the name of the flower first).

EDIT: Here is the new one, of Glory-of-the-Snow.

Also, I just noticed that the background in the old one isn't fully desaturated, I'll have to fix that.
