Rose

[Helen Jane]

Very striking Gayle. The rose petals look so soft - I can almost smell the scent from here. (I think my eyes are too tired for the background this time of the day though ;) )

[Milanie]

What a beautiful stately rose - the color is gorgeous. Really nice focus to show those textures.

Neat image, color, pattern

[Karen]

Great shot - the petals look so delicate and the background pattern gives a 3 d effect! The colour of the rose is wonderful

[Diane]

Beautiful focus on that gorgeous red rose, the background is very funky.

[Jenfurj]

A special gift? Love the vibrancy of the background.

[HelenM]

Super contrast. The background gives the rose an "edginess" that I love

[Chris K]

very interesting c0ntrast. works well

[John Falconer]

Great shot. Red is always hard to photograph.

[Issi Bannerman]

This is beautiful against the herringbone background. The red is great, it's kept its colour nicely.

[Irene Marshall]

I find red is a very hard colour to capture you have done this very well, great backdrop for this rose Fav. I will check your vew info LOL...

[ShirleyB]

Lovely shot. Unusual choice of background but it works really well, makes the flower really stand out.

[Jaroslav Šulc]

Interesting concept!

[Dyan Stevens]

Gorgeous shot of the rose!

[Merrelyn]

The rose is beautiful. The background is interesting, but my eyes struggle with it :)

[Kate Goring]

Such a cool backdrop!! Love the details in the rose.

[Richard]

Excellent capture. Red is so difficult to get. You did great with this one.

[Stephanie Swift]

Wonderful colour, texture and detail in this rose capture. I think I might have preferred a background that doesn't struggle with the rose for our attention.
