At first sight, I just look at the final picture and thought it is a kind of orchid. See it the second time, there it goes a beautiful vision for the life of a tulip. Even with the moment it leave the world, it still has its own beauty.
Then I quickly thought of a motion - creating motion with blur and depth with shadow. Began to play with cropping and layers. Many layers to take care of, the shadow and colours transition, blur proportion. It brought me the final work after 4 hours. The last flower cost me much time in cropping because there are many separate and different color areas. I made it a challenge to practice cropping with that. It doesn't seem to be perfect this time but I can feel my skill in using pen tool has been upgraded :)
My final work
Special thanks to Selester for the picture.

You are so patient. especially when cropping the dead tulip. But, i think the tulip in the middle is not necessary because it seems to cut the blurry range.
Thank you, Duy. Yeah I see your point but the middle one is the blooming one - I dont want to eliminate it :P
I love this work. Very interesting. In my opinion, you should put more blur on the blurred tulips to make 3 main tulips actually stand out.
Very cute ;)
Nice idea! I think if you increase a little blur on the 2nd tulip, it may look better, because it seems that the 3rd tulip is blurrier than the second, isn't it?
