Everything is simpler than you think,
And at the same time
More complex than you imagine.
And at the same time

Goethe
This began as a photograph of an amaryllis last year... The bulbs are simple and complex enough just the way they are. I tried to amplify both the sense of simplicity and complexity (and awe) with photoshop.
In what ways did I, or did I not, succeed?

you made a beautiful picture with both simiplicity and complexity.
It looks as if it has been covered in fine snow crystals! It's very beautiful. You've kept the simple and complex qualities, but you've added another dimension that looks like magic... a sprinkle of fairy dust!
I think it's lovely!
Really beautiful. Intelligent Design aside, the complexities found in nature are awesome. I see an aspect of wonder here. And that always starts to lead to imagining. The subject 'flower' speaks simplicity, but you've opened it and let us look a little closer. Very nice.
This is lovely, with a little touch of mystery
I think you acheived your goal! perfection!!!
you have succeeded and made a clone of your own choice of design.
have a wonderful christmas.
I think that the flower is really cool. Some parts look really textured, and some are very blurry. It makes for an interesting look that is both simple and complex.
I think that if the background were more simple (maybe more flat looking) it would accentuate the beauty of the flower more. But that's just me.
It's multidimensional, and soft. I like it.
The illustration/painting is beautiful and the quote is full of depth. I love it.
