 A real rose lit with a single sparkler. After 25 shots my room looks and smells like a welding crib.

The broken glass really makes this special. Very good effect. Reminds me of fireworks! 9 Swash

really like the placement of subjects in this shot...good composition

The idea is great...i almost totally like how it resulted...but i think the dullness of the colors on the rose contrast too much with the bright sparkler things.

Neat effect. What was used to make the "sparkles". The rose looks like it has a bit of bluish hue. Could be my monitor

For me roses are the most difficult bloom to photograph. I admire the beautiful and most natural colour you have picked up in this flower. The spikey environment gives this rose a real place to live on the picture plane....

Interesting twist on the rose cliché. I like the thorns (or branches?). Well done. 7

Are these sparkels? The white lines actually look like aome kind of plant.
