Bruce:
A very beautiful rose. Like the red rim at the edge of the petals making the red lines stand out from the orange. The green bg provide a good backdrop for the flower. Excellent comp.

Beautiful complementary colors and a perfect supporting bg for the rose Bruce. My only suggestion and it's purely subjective would be to consider a crop from the top to place more emphasis on the rose. Outstanding image for my tastes.

Bruce, Excellent - I love these dual colored Roses :cool: . Good front to back DOF and a clean background. Crop from the top seems like a good suggestion.

A lovely portrait of a Rose, Bruce. The two-toned beauty is quite elegant. One minute I look at it, and the stem fits quite well; the second minute, it looks out of place. So not sure about that design element.

Cheers,

Carol

Great color and complimentary background. I agree a touch off the top brings more prominence to the comp. Excellent clarity and dof. :toast:
