Description
It hadn't occurred to me to post the original of yesterday's image until just now, but something about the comments everyone was making made me think a comparison would be interesting.
So for those of you who were wondering, here's the original of "Behind the Scenes." All I did was size this. No postwork here! This is exactly the way it came out of my camera. The unvarnished truth. In my opinion, this is a crappy shot, and I'm only trashing up my gallery with it to satisfy the curiosity of my friends. * sigh * The sacrifices I make for you guys! ;)
I might delete it from my gallery later if I just can't stand it!

Oh, my! How lovely. The play of light and shade, seen through the petals is quite beautiful.
stunning pov and capture
I am glad I don't have to choose wich is a favorite I would be in deep trouble. This purple colored petals lighten up by a sun just perfect. Great to see the different.
Very pretty purple, and interesting lighting! 8-)
Its not that bad. And look what can be done with postwork. I'd hang on to it.

Yeah, ok, the sky isn't that interesting, but it sure is a pretty flowwer.
But it is so beautiful and it is interesting to see a flower from another POV too. Lovely colors. I like it.

I would not call this crappy at all. You pulled off what looks like an extremely difficult shot, and the POV is very original. The light adds mystique to the image. Great job!
