Oh, ths is so beautiful and love it. Composition is superb in every way. Back lighting is excellent and the texture in the petals are marvelous. Everything is sharp, clear and cannot see how it could be improved. Yea, this one is very well done just like lefse, Mana Tuk,

Very well presented image - like the flower set off against the perfect muted background. Great impact. One small point - I notice a fringe at the flower edges... Thanx much for sharing...

Comment from canon shooter
You sure got everything sharp on this one. Very nice colors and the BG really helps with the rose color. Is there a reason you put I right in the center? Thanks for sharing this very nice photo.

Thank you very much for the lovely review. I did not have any special reason for using this format and the centered position. I usually crop much tighter and show just a psrt of the flower, but this time I wanted to show the whole rose and thought the framing created a good DOFF. With a tighter cropping this effect would have been lost.

Wow, you did a great job with this. That filter makes it look like a painting rather than a photograph. Very detailed and excellent color. Nice work.

You do very, very nice work, great shadow of the flower, awsome details through and through? what a picture...I love your work, and interest in detailed workings. This is so very clear in detail, and cant think of anything wrong with this.

Comment from EricHcpa
This has such a nice soft feel to it. Colors starting out stronger in the middle, then fading to the outer petals, then into the nicely softened background. It looks like a fine painting!
