I'm not liking the thickness of the border but the shot is beautiful. Hmmmm... I think I need to increase my vocabulary.... how 'bout enchanting.

Looks like flames. Great vibrant color combination. I wish the one purple "streamer" was not in front of the yellow.

The detail in the yellow almost makes it look like cloth. Beautiful depth of colours.

Just being sillly again, you know how Catholic flags and stuff are yellow and purple (or it is gold and purple) and a lot of their stuff seems to run into these colours. It just reminded me of it.

At this point I don't think the black even qualifies as a border... For me, it's just that he wanted to show the colors against a black BG instead of a grey one. The white's the border here, for me. Nice work Brad.
