This was a totally accidental shot where the flash went off outside of the flower and backlit it, producing the intense colour saturation. There was absolutely no "image enhancement" believe it or not!

Looks very much like a painting and makes a vibrant and different wallpaper.

A real showstopper. Gorgeous liquid color, like wet oil paints.
