I loved this before and love it even more now. So sensual and beautiful. I'd love to see the flare? circle to the mid left cloned out. The colors in here are simply beautiful.

Personally, I like the "before" image more than the "after" one. It has a dreamy look which I love. I might darken the flower just like in the "after" image but would keep the dreamy background. #8561548
