@Mirko Herzner: It is a petal from a very large, wide open day lily ... I was drawn to it by the graceful curl and the deep orange and russet colors. Thanks for your kind words, Mirko.

@Lorraine: Well, it sure looks like it could be a curled carrot peel ... but it's a petal from a wide open day lily ...

Wow - that processing is stunning! (Of course, the original image has to be good as well!)

Great work Ron... a good piece of modern art, put a price tag of $20,000 on it and it'll sell.
