Great idea to photograph the rose in a darkened room. The flower looks like soft velvet in this light. The contrast between the dark background and the red flower tipped with gold is amazing. Nice work!

This really caught my eye.it is visionaly stunning.it looks like the rose is made up of moulten lavour as if its about to erupt.If you was unfortunate to get a rose from the lord of darkness this would be it.Amazing

Wow, this is beautiful. The first impact is striking. The rose almost seems to be emitting light and fire. Such a creative idea. Very well composed and focus. Just beautiful.

I love the dark mysterious feeling to this. It should be the cover of a really good novel. Pretty colors and tones. Sharp and clean. The light is used nicely. Well done.
