 Cloth twisted to get the rose like swirls. Used a red laser pointer to draw on it. Many thanks to arpita for the idea of using the laser pointer for this challenge.

PS : Cropped to improve proportions. Squeezed the image horizontally. Added black on top and the bottom to get a vertical aspect ratio.

A tighter landscape crop would have worked better for this motive imo, the dark parts at the top and bottom doesn't add anything, but I like the center of the photo.

Is it really a rose, or an optical illusion? Very nice. If it's not a rose, brilliant!

Wow! very interesting and mysterious. I like the fact that it is smooth and not grainy beyond reason. I think this pic has a good chance in this catagorie.
