Yes....your ROSE is glowing and I am assuming it was the flower itself that you softened, yes??

I do like the way you've positioned it so the light is falling on it in a very nice way. I also like how you've shown it on the wood floor....the wood strips make a very nice background.

Now while I can let the detail of the ROSE slide as artistic license I really feel the Baby's Breath should have been crisp and sharp. While I also like the way the light is falling on it it doesn't have the softness of the ROSE. I'm afraid it just looks like a very soft focus. I think your soft, glowing ROSE would be much more effective w/ the Baby's Breath standing out crisply around it against that wonderful dark wood floor.

Best of luck in the Open Challenge.

Deborah

Not sure what you mean by "babies breath?". You have presented a nice rose bloom here. Its well composed, the exposure is fine but is it intentionally not sharp? Otherwise, well done and good luck!

This is beautiful. Edit is creative. It presents the beauty of the flowers especially the rose in a different way. Others might say that the highlighted part at the bottom left and black part below the rose could be eliminated to keep attention on the flowers. When my photograph of flower had shadow on petals like this, some professional photographers here in this site used to ask me to avoid it. My problem is I love such these distractions...as an enjoyable contrast of perfection and imperfection.

Well done and thanks for sharing.

    Thank you Joel. I really see this as more of a creative endeavor than a pure photograph. I just really think that some artists here are purists and have trouble seeing that photography can be an art form.

a nice picture as the floor color add contrast and add to the color you used above. nice contrast in the rose as it seems to be picked at a good time.
well done.
good luck in the contest.

A very nicely composed shot. I like the light and the fine colors it gives you. The rose itself is somewhat lacking in detail. Best of luck in the contest.
