Greetings from the Critique Club

The silk rose on a pink background is certainly an appropriate subject for a Greeting Card.

I have a couple of suggestions for this image. First, the pink shade you chose (imo) is just a touch strong; you might try muting it. Also, if the rose was further away from the background, you would stand a better chance of eliminating the shadows. Then, compositionally, if the rose was placed more to the left of the frame it would keep the viewer in the picture longer.

Finally, my camera club judges always stress the importance of "border patrol." That would take care of that partial leaf in the lower section of the image. (I always seem to see that stuff after the image has been submitted.)

I wish you the best of luck in future Challenges!

I think I would like it better if it didn't look like the flower was laying on the backgroud.

Needs to be more in focus. Dark leaves on the rose are distracting. I wish you had clones out the partial leaf at the bottom.
