Nice photo,,,, would make a nice watercolor subject with its soft textures ...as it is, the stiking color sets the picture ablaze....keep up the good work.

This is a stunning photo, the red is so vibrant that it jumps out at you the blurring is perfect to cut out the back ground yet keep the stems somewhat in focus. The contrast and brightness is perfect. :)

Now that is a beautiful shot. The colors are so vibrant and you can just feel how velvety (sp?) this flower is. This is really a gorgeous shot. Great job.

Beautiful work on the framing of this shot. Capturing the thorns next to the rose and having the only two things in the picture is great! Sweet as a rose...ouch...watch out for those thorns!

The best photo I saw of a natural rose. Most of the pictures is normaly done in a Studio with backgrounds and lighting added. Stunning focus and placing of the thorns
Stunning Job

A beautifully detailed rose. I like the way you captured the thorns in the background, while the petals are so clear. This would be great framed and given as a gift. Great!!

This is a lovely picture that really shows off the beautiful color of this rose. You can almost feel how delicate the petals are. Very nice.
