Great eye to see how to creatively take the shot at this angle. I like how each petal gas a rolled edge and cones to a triangular point.
Beautiful use of light, superb sharp focus, controlled white balance and fantastic use of filters.
Beautiful work Cara :)

This Rose is exquisite. The color shades of the petals are superb. The flower seems to glow out from the dark, slightly illuminated background. The straight-on view at eye level allows us a good observation of the blossom and the stem. The centered position of the flower is perfect for this angle of view. Your photo is expertly focused, exposed and treated with mixed media. The sharpness of detail is impressive. The Rose is excellent placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

Beautiful work on this lovely rose! I love the unexpected angle from the side and the gorgeous definition in the petals. The mixed media applications have created a stunning effect that makes this a superb composition. Lovely!

Comment from Glena Jessee-King


This different angle is good; the rose is lovely, however, some of the petals are somewhat wrinkled, and there is a black ending on one leaf tip. You did a professional job with your photography. As I look at the whole, the background is perfect. It almost appears that the flower has been cut short at the stem. Unique flower.

Annie, this is most exceptional!

Seeing the folds in the flower's petals really shows how perfect this shot is.

Colors and straight on visual is amazing.

Well done!

Comment from supergold


a very good idea Annie to take a picture from the flower level because it is the best angle to show the texture of the petals; outstanding lighting and sharp focus as usual;
