This is really cool....but what did you do to it to make it look that way?

Quite different, and very good.

author says:

Thank you for the comments,

Kellie you just had to ask didn't you? This I believe was quite literally the least technical setup I've ever done. For the BG I used orange tissue paper, it was taped hanging from my cupboard with the light from the kitchen sink behind it so I could get that glow. the irises were in a lemonade pitcher about 1 foot in front of it. The flowers were to dark then so (and here's where I get lazy) my buddy and I used the flashlights from our Droids to light the flowers! I was using a canon 50mm lens set to f/2.2 to give the very low dof. Then it was just a matter of pulling it into lightroom and adjusting the curves, fill, vibrancy, and boosting the oranges and purples a bit.

Lazy or not...wonderful! Thanks for the explanation...us newbies always need direction on good lighting!

Ahhh, I see. Very nice setup. I was kind of wondering why the edges of the flower looked the way they do. Is it possibly from Curves?

author says:

It's a combination of curves and color shifting, I took the blue levels down and that desaturated the fringe around the flower giving it that soft halo look.
