Someone told me this is "very 1980s - very colorful". I guess that means I need to do a contemporary version that isn't so colorful...?

By the way, just in case you thought I took this photo with the flower on a black background with fancy lighting, that was not the case. Here's the original. It took me about 90 minutes to isolate the flower from its background. Yes, I'm nuts, obsessive, whatever you want to label me. Go ahead!

I like the effect! I wish I could get my flower pictures to pop with color like yours do. Great work!
I would like to add your site to my Favorites, hope that's ok.
