Post challenge;
Here's the original for this. The on cam flash was blocked by the end of the lens, but I liked the softness and the glow from inside the flower when I edited it up. I knew that it would crash in voting here at DPC because of noise and softness, but I like that stuff for some things.
Here's a more DPC friendly version which I like much less, though technically it's better.
