Thanks RK. No major ps work was done. I did apply noise reduction to the red background. It isn't 100% completely uniform , I thought it added to the overall atmosphere of the image. Minor cloning was done to remove specks, levels, saturation, cropped, resized, sharpened.

Techo, like the almose 2D feel to this picture. Love the shadow under the petals and stem. But, the top-left (facing the picture) portion, just around the petals seems artificial or touched up...could be just my monitor.
