You have managed to make the flower very sensual - kudos, Michael.

Has a ghostly quality - love the grading in the colours.

Well, thanks Bjørn. Flowers are among the most sensually explicit photo objects. I even have some flower photos I don't dare even post.

Now, this is lovely. Might make a few word puns on the main elements and their interrelationships, but they aren't necessary in order to enjoy the outcome.

Fabulous composition and color.  Remember how most color films could not reproduce the blue color of the Morning Glory ?

That was probably due to the residual nIR sensitivity of the colour film. Fuj Velvia RVP was bad in this respect.
