I think it looks better as an abstract with about the bottom 3rd'ish cropped off. For me it disrupts the neat patterns of the top portion. I like the patterns and color. what flower is it? well done!

I love the top portion of the abstract image. Not so much the bottom. Interesting to see the original image - the normal one. How did you go from one to the other Rense?

Think Id really like it cropped just above the Black spot.
That pulls my eye in too much and it is not that interesting.
But the lines above it is a winner...

I was going to say this too... I agree with Athena. The bottom part does help to drive home the idea of flames, but when I look at it without the bottom part it has a lot more impact...

Nice Work
