Thanks to all voters and commenters, I really appreciate your time.
I had comments about "noise"...ummm...yeah. I boosted the noise so that there would be texture in the "trees". I like it that way, and wouldn't change that.

This is sort of a revelation. Sitting here admiring your shot, wondering what I might say to show my appreciation of its fullness and richness and cunning, I noticed the comments and took another look. Well, I totally missed the noise, but looking closer I see that all is not crisp and crystal clear as well. Oh dear.
Disappointing finish. A great setup marred by soft focus and grain. Better lighting and maybe a radish "butterfly" or other focal point positioned toward the top might have made this a top 5 or ribbon.
Very noisy. Looks like it was maybe shot on a low MP camera or cropped in alot. The "trunks" aren't too bad, but the colored "plants" on the ground aren't as crisp as I would hope.
