Keni, I really like the color pallet you have for this image. I also would have thought you started with a flowering garden here. Good work.
Oh, and for the record I did see Iron Butterfly live once. They were really good live.

Thanks Dave! I was 7 when the song was recorded in '67. A little before my time but I did learn to play the bass line in my 20's when I was a wanna be musician.

My original inspiration was the song. The story goes that the writer was so drunk he was slurring his words which is why it's called In a Godda Da Vida instead of In The Garden Of Eden. I suspect that given the time it was probably more than just alcohol. I wanted the garden to look psychedelic and not quite real. Having never done psychedelic drugs this is how I imagined it would look. I did crank up the clarity and sharpening to give an edge to details.
Gotcha.. Thanks for the explanation!

Very rich colors. You might try slipping in a bit of weak complementary color, to bring out your dominant colors even more.
