A last-minute idea and submission since I haven't entered in a long time and this seemed like a fun challenge. Just some roses shot through shower glass with a Canon 50mm lens. I thought it provided a cool "painterly" look, although I'm not sure if folks will think its a Photoshop effect or if they will "recognize" the shower glass effect...
This is a direct-from-camera shot, aside from cropping and resizing.
The white background is intentional, to simulate an unpainted part of the "canvas".

Looking at my patio furniture last night as I pondered this challenge I realized how you got this effect. Very nice, but the shower wall is too white, perhaps a pastel towel in the background would have lessened the contrast.
Water drops on glass? I hadn't thought of that before. The whites are pleasant without becoming a distraction by being to hard on the eyes. Thanks for entering. Can't wait to read the notes.
this is a beautiful image but with floral bouquets and impressionism I tend to image some sort of tapestry background, way darker and less distortion, however this is very nice! would give it an 8 if i could vote.
Good try but I just feel that if there are two components to this photograph (the original image and the camera technique/distortion/filter) then together they don't amount to more than the sum of their individual parts.
this is ok, but i would like it more if it had a lot more detail. the colors, lighting, and general composition look like they provided a great foundation, but the lack of detail fails to take me further.
An interesting flower shot, which I'm assuming was taken through textured glass, or is a water reflection. I think the white background stops this from being really exceptional... the composition is just a little plain as it stands. Nice painted effect though. 6
