Default Like a Flower, Trampled on the Ground

Like a Flower, Trampled on the Ground

Took this shot at night. It depicts a beautiful flower, cut and trampled on the ground. Noisy image was intended.

(For all you nature lovers, I did not pluck the flower (: )

Canon EOS 400D
EF 17-40mm lens
Focal Length: 40mm
ISO: 800
Aperture: f/4
Shutter speed: 1/10

Crits, anyone? (:

blur in the background seems to start abruptly. guessing that you done some PP on it.. Otherwise really like the shot, specially the dim lighting.

Thanks people! I really appreciate your comments (:

@ Sukanta: The only PP I did was tone adjustment and the usual "lens blur + overlay" process. The blur of the original image started this way. I should've corrected it with some pp blurring, but oh well.
