Congratulations on your win, artist friend. Ah! This is a beautiful work, artist friend, from the rose and petals, to the leaves, and the background. It would make a beautiful painting as well as digital work.

Thank you Glena, that was a big surprise this morning. I always feel my art is no up to par with other artists on FAR. This is a much appreciated boost and encouragement. Thanks for your support!

A very nice picture of this rose. The petals of the rose are very eye catching and the lovely shades of blue in the background are wonderfully done. Nice composition, shades and tones

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of a beautiful rose bloom. Colours, textures and tones are good. Well created and good luck!
