Hi Ellen

Your shot is like a poem: delicate and exquisit. The focus on the edge of the leaf and on the water dews is exellent. A demanding job indeed. I have two suggestions though. One, is the blurred are on the left that lacks details; it should be cropped out. second, color has nothing to do in your shot. what matters is the shap, line and form, so I think a black and white image would work better. I have posted a version. I chose a 18 cm X 18 cm crop to leave out the whit blank area that doesn't contribute to your shot plus a little bit of the blurred area. Then I applied an adjustment layer with monochromatic channel mixer to turn your shot into B&W.

I like the idea of the untulip....
