Another beauty Frank. Perfect lighting to show the delicate texture, detail and form of the petals, coupled with the lovely inner reflective glow to counterbalance the shadows. Excellent work!

Interesting shooting angle. The petals look like throw pillows.

Gorgeous colour, but what I really love is the original cropping used here ... makes such a refreshing change to the usual flower macro shots. Lovely work. (4 Aces)

Wow - That is close!
Beautiful soft colours and excellent detail and lighting. I like it 'cause it's not just another picture of a rose. It looks like soft cushions.
Close, Closer, Too Bloody Close!

Wow, Frank, that's so beautiful! Great light and textures! :o)

I like this detail, because its a bit abstract... It is a unique way to capture petals and less obvious.
Very interesting. Turned out lovely.

It's a pity, but scooter.john has removed the photo before mine: www.flickr.com/photos/scooterjohn/250444697/
Well, I'll comment this one: the game of light and shadows is perfect, and you captured the texture of the petals in such a way that I can almost smell the rose parfum! A great image!
Close, Closer, Too Bloody Close!
