This is a macro of a some kind of succulent. I got a cutting of a friend. It has since been blown out of it's pot by strong winds!
Just minor adjustments in levels,curves,brightness/contrast and shadow/highlights.

Wow, that is so interesting and pretty. I love that amazing focus popping up out of that dreamy blur. This would be a great foreground bokeh photo too!
i hadnt seen this one of yours before .. its stunning .. so beautiful the way the flowery things seem to be reaching out .. the colouring is so soft and lovely with the deeper red contrasting .. the little droplets are excellent elements in this macro .. great title .. :)
Nice lighting and the pastels are very pleasing to look at. I think the hint of noise gives the image a bit of texture which I like. Only thing I don't care for is the centered composition and how the water droplet gets so little play on the bud. Might have had a bit more impact shot from a different angle to give that droplet its moment in the limelight.
