Hi all, I had a fairly boring photo of a tulip that I took this afternoon, and was playing with some actions to see if I could make it more interesting.

I still think its on the boring side, but what do you think?

I deleted my first post so its easier to compare.

the saturation boost is nice, but I'm wondering if it would make a nice B&W

I did try a B&W, but it didn't look very flattering because the back side of the image is so dark. Not that I'm very good with B&W conversions anyway :)
