lovely photo. if i was nitpicking it...i'd like to see the back ground stay dark, as you have it, with a little texture, but to see the wood of the table pop a little more. it looks like it has a nice grain to it, and it would make the rose-wood connection more.

The delicate rose against the rough texture of the wood is beautiful, wish there were more highlights on the rose but that is a small point on an overall well done shot.

Nice detail and composition. Rose is just soft enough to contrast with the texture of the wood.

I really like this shot, focus is fantastic and the droplets of water are cool and clear. Not onlly that but the rose is in excellent condition too.
