A stunning rose, I really love this type of rose

While I've never been one to see beauty in flowers, I can say that this has enraptured me.
The tiny sense of wilting on the rose shows an awful lot of perspective on it. The blurring you've used to focus on it adds even more of a fine quality to the picture. I'd have to say that even with the blur around the rose, the background is a bit distracting. Whatever is behind the rose, almost looks like a hand, or possibly something to keep the rose on whatever it's on? I may be wrong on that note, but try making the background a little bit darker next time. Focus more light from behind, facing the rose so you don't get the image other than the rose.
It's a lovely job of course and it's another favorite of mine.
4 star average!

This is such a lovely rose flower photo! Not only does this photo show the delicateness of the rose, it also shows the vibrancy of the roses color as well as it's beautiful shape and texture as well. The way the depth of focus is in this shot also brings total attention to the rose flower it's self and nothing around it. In a way it's almost like it has a spot light on it but without the glare or flash that usually accompanies a spot light. I also like this angle where you are looking straight down into the rose, but with the rose being on it's side. This is definitely a well done rose photo that I admire a lot!
