Scott: The dew visible on the larger version is a nice bonus. My less than 1¢ nit is I might like a tiny bit more room on the left.  Beautiful subject superbly captured.>=))>

Beautiful, Scott.  Superb dof and focal plane control to get this so sharp.  A beautiful rose.  I really like your treatment of the leaves.

Hi Scott, a beautiful rose portrait - like it very much - (I am very interested on roses that show a more 'mature beauty')!  Composition is very good - No improvements on the image/photography/processing itself! I think the image could also enjoy a slightly larger black background top, left and right without detracting from this beautiful rendition.

Scott, I love the softness and the delicate color of the flower. I appreciate very much your personal way of concentrating on the shape and color of the rose without looking for the contrast needed for enhancing the water drops. It's a beautiful image for me.

Beautiful light and tiny dew, Scott. A lovely rose, it looks a bit shy.
