this is really quite pretty. don't feel texture much, almost the opposite. it's soft (as it should be) and the texture is sort of washed out as a result.
Great idea but I think that some of the white is a bit too blown out which hasnt helped to maintain some of the definition and thus the texture of the flower. Adjusting the curves if you have photoshop would help with regaining some of the definition
It's very pretty, particularly the light... but seems a bit too soft IMO...I keep wanting to see more of the petal textures because I know they're there somewhere...please do not get me wrong...I have nothing against "softness" in general...I just would have loved to have a bit more "texture" in this pretty rose.
Nice close-up, but the flower lacks definition. Appears flat and looks more like a white glob. A little overexposed. A little darkening would bring out the shadows more. Also needs focus.
