For me, your tall aspect makes this a standout. Well conceived!

Although pretty, I don't appreciate this as much as some of your others, those that have a unified processing and rich subtlety. This has worked up area and others in harmony. The coloration is mildly exaggerated, like so many other photos. I don't get the expression.
Of course, I may have missed the whole point.

Gotta do some 'splain'n here...
First off, artBob and edrobinsonjr, I also see what you did and am in no way offended by your comments.
This pic was shot with a cell cam in outrageously bright, near-setting sunlight. The left part of the image below can perhaps give you some idea. That yellow grass is actually a deep green.
The right part is my original snap, SOoC.
To get the picure I placed myself with my back to the sun, mustly to keep the daisy from blowing out. The scene was still getting lighting from each side and bright blue from above. I pretty sure that refraction of light around my body played a part also.
Then I played a bit...note that the stem of the daisy isn't even visible in the original. Close cropping to enhance the apparent height of the daisy managed to make some fringing noticeable (which I liked).
Then the most important factor -- Abstracts forever!
Glad you liked the pic and never hesitate to tell me what you really think.

Thanks for the explanation. I know you are genuinely creative, and, like you, I appreciate people telling me what they see. BTW, the backlit photo strikes me as having some unusual and real possibilities.

There again, It's interesting to find how we all see things do differently. For me it was just a failed shot that I hadn't yet deleted.

That clears things up. I appreciate the trouble and thought you gave to the image.
