I'm not usually so fond of selective desaturation, but this is beautiful! My eye is drawn directly to the softness in the center of the rose. If I could change anything, it would be to remove the object in the lower left - can't tell what it is, but I think the out of focus diagonals in the upper right work best here.
Returning for comment:
Nice bokeh, nice details and wonderful lighting.
I like the "dying" part of the rose. Makes it a bit different then other rose pictures in this chalenge.
