Two ivory roses I bought at Wal-Mart last night. My husband held a piece of white posterboard up behind them for me out in the back yard while I took the picture. I wish I had ripped the leaves off of them first so that leaf wasn't in the picture.

Is that a spider? Neat. That bumps my rating up a notch. :-)

Nice composition and I like the coloring too. I want to gently remove the little spider off the foreground rose as I find him distracting, but it was probably his home and he was there first. :-) Nice shot - good luck in the challenge. 9

This is a beautiful image, but the black speck on the rose is very distracting to me. I like the dappled look on the background. 7

would do better imo, with no green and both roses in focus (or just use of one rose?)
