I promise that this is the last from the studio flash experiment. I just did some small changes in pose and background, and pretty much the same settings as the previous. Of course, all comments and critique sought. Thanks.

Oh, so pretty. Beautiful color and detail and texture in the rose.

Bob, I'm not wild about the light here, it seems a little intrusive to me. Other than that the only thing I might try is a crop from the top to maybe a 5:4 aspect ratio.

the color and texture of the rose is gorgeous. I might crop a little off the top, but that's subjective.

Bob: Don't stop on my account. They keep getting better. I think you hit this one out of the park. Really well done.>=))>

Bob:
I like the rich red color of this rose and the fine texture. The lighting is better than the previous one. If you are inclined, you may want to darken the bg more to make the rose pop.

Super nice color and details Bob! I agree with the crop suggestionsm but I also like the vignette at the top.

I love the red in this - deeply saturated but it retains the texture of the petals. It makes a bold statement. Nice work with the studio flash.
