Very nice. The soft blend of colors is captivating. Nice shot.

Sorry, but I think this was poorly executed.

IMO (which does not count) I would have liked to see this with a gaussian blur to soften the rose just a touch...make it more "dreamy" as it is...it feels to harsh for the softness of the picture again IMO

Nice shot but you also get the Blue Ribbon for horrible borders. Of course, that's just an opinion but...
