I love the effect of the light through the petals, almost translucent.

The image itself is beautiful, but I would have saturated it a bit more and given it a bit of unsharp mask to see how it would look like.

I love the lighting too! it creates a slight sparkle on the leaves and petals.
Are these begonia flowers?

It's difficult to look at it without the idea that it's a plant, yet I manage to see it as an abstract form and then it becomes really interesting, something like a chariot on Mars with round antennas and other devices. Funny!
