Lovely, just lovely.

very good textures here but the right(top) leaf has some funny blur that is distracting and, as with most images reduced to 750p, you loose that great tonal range.

Really, really well done. So subtle and so moving. 25

Thanks...This is a macro of a tiny intense yellow (actually starting to brown since it was all dried out). It was about the size of my thumb. I forget what variety of rose that is but the bushes are the size that you can put on a windowsill in your house, very tiny.

The tonal range was difficult because of the actual color of the rose. The blur was actually the very narrow DOF that my 60mm macro lens has even at f40 (yes this was shot at f40)

I see that there are some good textures here. Unfortunatley, it's a bit too contrasty for me to pick out much.

I would have cropped this behind the rose, the rest is very distracting.

nice mood in this one

Hey Laurie, it is a very good shot and I failed to mention that, it's funny because the blur doesn't look like natural bokeh.
