Very nice Tom.
I played around with it in PS but it's such a delicate image that the slightest over adjustment ruins it. And the right amount may be imperceptible from the original to most people. A "very" slight application of the paint with light (PWL) technique gives it a bit more pop ... but a touch too much and the fragile essence of the flower is lost.
Bottom line ... it's a wonderful picture of a great flower as is. Looks like you captured it at it's peak. Well done!

Looks nice. I saw your post on dpreview and while it is possible to give it extra "pop" it also loses a little of the fragility of the original imho.
This is what I was referring to in my post above. Of course, both versions are fine and it really depends what effect the photographer is looking for. They might want the traditionally exposed/saturated/sharpen look often popular or some may prefer a lower/higher key or dreamy sort of effect. That's the great thing about photography as you can chose one or many different outcomes.
It's amazing how important timing can be ... some flowers or insects, etc seem to be at their peak for what seems like only a nanosecond (photographically speaking).
Keep up the good work.
