Wow, exceptional skill and maturity in style. It's calm, perfectly executed, with attention to every detail, even way back to the four corners. The color you've captured is also stunning and since i see two versions (laptop and monitor), I can't decide which I like better. Composition is beautifully balanced, textures are right out of Room with a View. Beatiful work.

A ranunculus is such a perfect flower and you have captured it here with all its lovely layered form.The colors and leaves of the flower are so wonderfully interlaced and the exquisite background couldn't be bettered in color and composition.

Comment from Danigirl021
Wonderful execution here. The flower is very sharp and there is so much detail I can see. I love how it is not fully open showing us that its beauty is yet to flourish. The lighting is well used. The soft background really helps make this pop for me as well as the reflection below. Wonderful job. Thank you for sharing.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! What a wonderful, golden composition, complemented so well by the warm greens and the barely-seen intricacies of the background.

very well done, with good color, superb focus and details in the flower, background is very unusual and works very well. Good like and dark to accent the flower. thanks so much for sharing.

The scene has been created with love and talent. The rich effects of the filters have given a rose a new life. The gold tones of the rose. The background is stunning including the leaves that provide a nice contrast. The layers of the rose gives us a look into the opening of a rose bud.

Comment from soulfeeder
The sharpness is impressive. Love the clarity of the layers of the petals, it textures and lines are pretty defined. Prominent veins of the leaves. Artistic background. High five on creative presentation. Excellent framing. An extraordinaire image. Well done on the modifications. A joy to view, feeds my soul.
