Rotate
Added vignette
Boosted contrast
Slight Gaussian blur on the lip of the leaf, because though it isn't in focus, a sea of really out of focus shots were going to make it look sharp as sharp could be.
Dodged some of the deeper shadow on the yellow bit
Smart sharpen

I have to subtract 2 points for the formal vignette (instead, I would prefer some hand burning along the vena lines to mimic the upper right corner), so I can only give this an 8. Beautiful colors and light. On second thought, the thumbnail looks like an abstract nude, and that alone is worth 2 extra points. -10
