into the vortex

An other take on an iris. This time with a focus on the center, I pulled the edges with a focal zoom to create the effect of getting sucked into the flower. I'm not sure if I'm overstretching the get pushed theme of portrayal of speed or not (@denidouble) - but I can imagine this as an insect view as it approaches the flower. I loved the symmetry of the iris and wanted to play with it in this way.
Great zoom effect! Those pictures are so much fun!

@pomelo @masosy thanks! Sometimes I think I can go too far with processing - but I wanted something other than "another iris pic."

this really works well with the focal zoom--I've only played with it a bit in picassa. Great processing. Fav.
