I'd never tried this technique before, and found this challenge a lot of fun. Here I tried to convey the softness of the rose using a piece of plastic wrap in front of the lens.

Nice yellow. It would be more interesting cropped with less balance or more - make the center really off center or exactly on center. If the lighting were less intense you'd get better shapes and shadows.
Nice choice of subject and use of soft focus, but I wish there were a bit more contrast in the flower. Still, I think this is one of the better images in this challenge
