Picture of a Double Delight hybrid tea rose and a Vista miniature hybrid tea rose. I wish I had another week because my Rainbow's End is a red and yellow and would have given better contrast. I took several shots and although it is off center, my husband and I liked this one best. Good close up of my table cloth. I also used Microsoft's Picture It! to adjust the contrast and brightness.

I can't decide if this meets the challenge, as it doesn't look very miniturature to me. The background is just blah, and I don't know why you would submit this picture.
Lovely. The composition is interesting and I think it works well. The colour and lighting are beautiful. The blue tint on the background compliments the flowers really well. The textures are inspiring and the soft focus is inspired.
I eally like the soft focus and the simplicity of the composition. The texture on the cloth or whatever it is is a bit distracting. Would have almost liked to have seen just the soft looking wrinkles. The one little hot spot just off the center to the right pulls some of my attention away as well. But overall I like the image.
