very interesting treatment. I think I like it. The limited number of colors(grays in this case) make for a desolate mood.

Very creative and well shot. Has a real emotional, kind of depressing feel. 8

The high contrast ratio makes the dry roses look like rotting roses. a little fill light would help. 4

reminds me of another picture i've seen that had a bunch of carpet rolls or something in a lenswork awhile back... similar dramatic lighting and shapes/forms... good job with this one

Nice lighting, although the image is a bit too dark and may have benefitted froma subtle backlighting also.
