 Hi, I am newbie in this site and new (not familiar) to the rules too. The title is Butterflies because the flowers look like butterflies surrounding the flowers. What I did to this photo in photoshop:
1. Duplicate layer
2. Crop
3. Saturate +35 (Hue/Saturate)
4. Unsharp mask
5. Add border
That's all.

I wanna ask if I can use all feature in the adjustment layers and filter (smart sharpen)? Is it against the rules? I have read the rules, but still not very sure. Thank you for answering my question. Cheers.

Very interesting subject, though the background doesn't make the image as a whole very interesting. The color is great, and the frame works very well.

A slight change of angle to bring the back into focus would have significantly improved this effort.
