A beautiful photo of a beautiful rose! I love the turning of color on this lovely bloom. The lighting is perfect, details sharp and the water drops/dew sparkle so nicely! : )

I like the leathery looking texture of the petals on this lovely rose. The rain drops give it that freaks from the garden look. The dark background is the perfect framing for its blended beauty.

    LOL Had to laugh at the 'freaks from the garden' bit Linda. Not to worry.....computers/phones that finish words for you do things like that all the time. Thank you so much the really fine review.....I knew exactly what you REALLY meant.

Lovely image with great detail and color. You have captured the water drops on the rose very well. They do make it sparkle. Well shaped bud with interesting flow of colors. Well seen.

Just a gorgeous rose captured uniquely at night. Love the beautiful warm tones of this orange,peach colored beauty. The water adds a nice sparkle to this flower that is very clear
And crisp. Excellent DOF achieved on this image. It's a beauty Deborah!

    My flowers just all seem to have that extra sparkle when I photograph them at night Marsha. Of course, the rain helped too on this particular evening. I do so appreciate the marvelous review you've given my new piece and especially thank you for sharing a gold star w/ it. You're a doll Marsha.

your THE ROSE is indeed a wonderful specimen with an array of peach colors; the capture of the petal texture and water droplets is outstanding; and since you call it sparkling, it is worth a bottle of sparkling.....water! lol;
or if you prefer a sparkling French Champagne; lol;

    Well THAT wonderful review and extra special rating calls for the real thing Fred! Sparkling French Champagne I'd say. Seriously though, I do really appreciate this even w/o the Champagne and thank you so very much. Big smile here.

This is a photo with really strong visual impact because of the vibrant colors of the rose, and also all the shiny droplets add beauty. The all dark background makes the rose stand out in an excellent way.

Your focus is spot on and sharp showing such clear and well defined details in all the petals of the rose, and the exposure is spot on.

The photo is nicely cropped and the rose has got such a fine placement within the frame. A truly beautiful and well taken photo Deborah, and with an excellent DOF.

Comment from Linda Engel


This is one of the prettiest colors for a rose that I've seen. Orange is my favorite color I love this reddish tone color. Good choice to present it against the black back ground as it shows off the soft water drops on the rose. This is stunning.

Exquisite, Deb. Your evening shots are magical. The orange hues against the dark background pop magnificently. Lighting and color are perfection plus super fine detail. Love the crystal clear raindrops too. One of your very best for sure. A joy to view and review. Ed.

    awwww...you are so kind Ed. I will have to for sure make this a calendar page next year and be sure to put it on the cover of YOUR calendar. Thank you so much for your kind words and very generous review. Definitely made me smile on the rather dreary afternoon we're having here.

    Most welcome. It was dreary here too when I saw this with a deluge of rain.
