I can't remember just where I took this picture. I thought they just looked perfect. Most of the pictures of flowers I have taken have a bright bold color, this is soft.

Beautiful, Catherine. As you say, the soft color makes the image. This one is nicely composed as well with just the right balance of flowers to greenery.

Catherine:
I like this composition. The pastels on the roses are just beautiful and the DOF is spot on without too much distracting bg. A minor suggestion is to clone out the bluish reflection in the bg in the RUC if you are not against doing this.

Great image. I agree with Gary about the URC and would also slightly tone down the leaves at the bottom to match the overall tone and keep you eye on the subject.

This picture does have a "soft" feel to it due to the pastel colors of the roses. Nice comp with the three flowers; I also like the addition of the in-focus bud on the left. I might wish for a little more breathing room at the top but fine as is too.
