Adolescent(?) Anthureum
Most anthureum spathes that I've seen are either bright white or some shade of deep fuchsia or red.  The inbetween-ness of this one appealed to me.

Anthureum
Multiple filters applied.  I wanted to achieve a better tonal balance between the vivid blossom and the dark leaves.  
(If I recall, I used posterize, colored pencil, and maybe one other;  I was just goofing around.  Whatever I did, I reduced the opacity of those layers quite a bit)

Koi at the Conservatory.
I've given up trying to get sharp, focused pictures of these colorful fish.  Mostly what I aim for is a mass of color with a sense of movement.  Usually I end up playing around with various filters.  In this case it was a 5-level Posterize layer at about 50% opacity.
