Fun subject that was nearly monochromatic to start with and just cried out for a really close dramatic shot. The first time ever that the first view on flickr yielded the first comment on an image.

Too fun.

Between the multiple stacked petals of the Columbine and the multiple fractal leaves of the fern branch, this shot just buzzes visually, setting up some sort of optical illusion of motion and discord. Fun to look at closely but tiring and difficult to process!

Just for fun...
