I took this photo, or rather I took several dozen, playing with the exposure and f stop trying to separate the flower from the background. Ended up spending hours removing the background from the flower, only to decide it was then too boring, and putting back in some interest with the lens flare overlay.

Finished result was worth it... but I've been there myself on numerous occasions.

Oh My Gosh!! That is one beautiful floral capture. Certainly a testament to your talents and patience. Thanks so much for the treat.

I feel the background enhances the subject so well done.

The light looks so cool!
