Another stacked masterpiece!  I also like it better in the viewer without the green border.

Phil: Spiked my frown-meter with this one. My only suggestion would be to clone away the little tip of the bud poking up behind the bloom. I might even make the stem for that bud go away below as well but that's less of a distraction for me. Superior subject superbly captured. >=))>

Beautifully realised, Phil, with nice detail, especially in the buds, which provide an unusual but very effective foil to the flower.  Lovely clean bg too.devil

Very beautiful color and detail in this lovely rose!  The dew drops and buds make this image even better. Very nice, Phil!

A beautiful work! Phil, you make me change my mind about photo stucking. In the larger version one can admire the beuaty of the colors. No nit that I a able to observe.
