I also edited this with color Effex Pro 4 and applied a couple filters, here is the other one.

love the first image Beth...never met a shade of green I didn't like...the second image looks a little too 'worked' for my taste...

This is really nice, Beth! I also prefer the first version., though I'm not sure I'm in love with the crop. It feels like it needs to move to the left a bit.

To me, Beth, a picture like this is about contours and texture, and maybe a suggestion of "opening". While the greens are wonderful, I'm not sure they contribute much to the message of the image. How well do you think this image communicates as a B&W? Since I think texture is important in this, and it looks to me like your ColorEfex edit increased "structure", it may be that your edit is a slightly stronger image.

I too prefer the first image Beth. But am not quite understanding Jeffs comment.

Beth what a cool find. I really like all the green. Out of the two as is I like your original because of the softness it has. as for your edit I like that you brought out the textures more but you made a halo around it which isn't good. I would start over an make sure you select the flower only on a separate layer,

Hi Beth-sorry I am late to this one! I think I prefer the first one too. Question-were the petals this green? Is it possible to put a little more yellow into the petals and take a little yellow out of the background to separate it better? I do love the texture on the first and the leaves around the flower are really pretty.

It's a full house! The first one! I really like the depth of the details of the flower to the bokeh in the background.

I tried to get the flower a bit more yellow. Elaine, they were almost this green when they started but as they got bigger they got yellow. I think I added space where Jeff was talking about.
