 couldnt really find a picture that i really liked to put into this contest, just decided to fool around with this picture.

i took it at 1/4000 because it was way to bright and the easiest way to get it not so bright was to make the shutter faster (im lazy). I was just out for a random shoot and didnt really care that much, just incase you guys were wondering.

just did the basics,

Levels
Dodge and Burn
unsharp mask
crop
resize

Althought these are small detailed flowers compared with the normal roses and orchids we see on this website, I am very drawn to them because of the effect you have done to use contrast and make them stand out. Excellent picture, well done. Assuming this is done by basic rules, I am looking forward to see how did you take this picture, I can learn a great deal from it...
