This is so beautiful. Every tiny detail is shinning like its the star of the show! Even the photo bombing gnat! Great catch!! I'm loving the offset of the flower as it gives greater contrast to the background. Kudos to you my friend. Another truly amazing and beautiful shot!

Selective color process was one of the ways I used to portray small children back when I did such things.
This is classic framing and presentation. The detail in the blossom is sharp and the color appears natural and warm. Looking at the center structures I am curious about trying some macro sessions for myself. I really like how the close by unopened flower buds are sharp, as they should be. You avoided a common mistake with this technique. That is, B&W structures that are perceived to be on or about the same focal plane as the blossom must be as sharp as the blossom - congrats, you nailed it.
Excellent work, I regret to say I have no six to give a more than worthy post ... Bob P B-))

Thank you so much Bob, your excellent review is much appreciated! I will admit that I do not have a macro lens so spent quite a bit of time learning how to use a long distance lens at close range to achieve macro style shots. It takes a bit of concentration on focusing but I feel pretty good about the results of this shot and am grateful for your supportive comments! :-) Jodi~ Way West

I like the way you used selective color to emphasize the vivd pink petaled flower ,
The flower is just lovely it appears to be delicate , I see good detail in top petals and in the center . The flower is well placed within the frame and immediately draws the eye.
Well focused, this image is clear, exposure is good, colors and tones appear natural in this light, I see good tonal variations in the black and white surroundings.
Well composed and presented!

a very good close up Jodi of this beautiful pinkish-red flower; it looks similar to a botanical rose I have in my garden; I like the very sharp details;

Selective colour always adds an interesting touch to a photograph and often of the floral kind and this is a fine example presented here. Really nicely composed, well done

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel
A very nice presentation with this special flower and your mixed media application is fantastic as you created the perfect color in the background so the flower can shine out in perfection
I love the angle and position you took this picture as normally we see flowers from different angles and this shows us that you were standing right above
a nice frame choice and good content, well done

You are most welcome, now I will have to move as the global shift is happening backstage and I have no idea when I will be back, so the only way to connect is by email and feel free to ask whatever you wish to know, sending a last angel today - have a blessed and happy new year, and I am so happy you like what I sent you, xoxo

This is really an unusual capture of the black and white; yet the beautiful single flower in such vibrant color and that delicate yet outstandingly middle of the colorful flower.
