Like the perspective in #7, but IMHO, it would have been better if the colour is a bit more vibrant. PS slightly?

For #8, did you try a shot with the focus on the yellow flower, blurring out the background? The flower in the original photo seems very distracting.

Thanks, Phaser, for your comments. Actually, I de-saturated the colours in #7 for a more sombre mood ... But, I guess I didn't do it enough and it became neither here nor there. Really appreciate your feedback.

I agree with u on #8 as well ... I didn't think the yellow flower in the foreground would become such as eyesore until I downloaded the pic to my com. I threw this shot out to see whether others had the same feeling. I guess I have to try again

Decided to add one more image to this series. This is a non-IR version of #3, with the channel mixer pushed to the extreme in PS for an "autumn" look
