 This week the weather was really lousy, dark and raining all the time, so I only took some plants to the balcony and did a mini session with the 50 mm lens reverse mounted. This one was most interesting, but we'll see how it will do with the voters, with no depth-of-field and weird bokeh...

Processing: levels, shadow/highlights to recover some of the brights, resized, usm, curves, border.

If this was recomposed, it might be a better idea to use a macro lens or adaptor to focus more on the bud - it's lost with the oddball DOF.

This would have worked really well for me if the buds had been slightly more in focus
