Number Two-Hundred-And-Seventy: Carrion Peony

The peonies have obviously interested me this year in all their stages of growth. I took a shot a bit similar to this just a few days back but now with the stamens dropped off I'm fascinated by the way it reminds me of a type of Carrion Flower on a miniature scale. I remember reading about Carrion Flowers in a National Geographic back when I was a kid and being literally afraid that something like that existed in the world. I'm not sure what freaked me out so badly. It's not like they eat people.

I took the picture with Camera+, cropped it and then used the Clarity filter from the Scenes menu. I didn't use any other filters from the Effects menu because I liked the colour as it was.
