I enjoy taking an image that I find interesting for various reasons and playing with it in post just to see what emerges. The following three images are examples of this. Which one's appeal to you? Be interested in hearing which and why.

I suppose that if I said that none of these appeal to me, I would be considered too critical and judgmental, but I am not particularly a fan of the abstract. Not that I haven't tried on the weird myself from time to time, I'd just rather look at well-executed straight photography.
Carry on...

I like the blue one...because I like Blue!! And I like the symmetrical/asymmetrical sort of thing going on there!

Thanks for looking in and your honest comment. Not your cup of tea. Would be an awful dull world if we all thought the same.

Thanks Chief, I'm thinking of having one of these converted into a metal print for my daughter. I like the blue one too but am looking for input to see if that's really the one that catches the eye.

I've never done metal prints, but I've seen some beautiful ones! I would bet that one of these would be incredible on metal!

Blue one appeals to me, but it seems too much is going on. What did the original look like?

They look like flowers. I like the last one.

What are they? I'm not sure but the look like cacti to me. I like the in your face red one. You should post this one in the Photo Critique Section too.

As you know, Reuss, I like to mess around in PP work myself. I'm usually driven by colors. For that reason, I'm not attracted to the B&W version.
The red and the blue are both attractive to me....kind of a mood situation. Do them both on metal and let your daughter display the one that best reflects her feelings that day.
In general, I stay away from mixing symmetrical and asymmetrical elements. But, of course, that's just my opinion. Others, I'm sure, will feel differently about that.
