Zephyr's Purple Victim

I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows
Quite overcanopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses and with elgantine
- William Shakespeare

Really liked the way the shot came out (bfore processing). The colours are as they were before, I've only muted the tones here.
Photo Editing: Crop, Sharpening, Hue/Saturation in Photoshop.

After this photo (finally) faded in... very very cool.... very abstract, very confusing, loving it. Although the blurry purple line may be interpreted as a screw up by some people I kind of like it. Very cool blurring, very cool photo, top marks, especially since it's manual.
Samarth: liked it just for those reasons...its such a cool subject and at the same time there are so many other things going on...

I liked the concept. But I feel DOF could have been used better.
Samarth: Thanks Anup...in what way do you mean?
