I'm not a fan of roses photos but in this case this one gives a break from all the black and white :) and the red is really soft and warm

lighting is beautiful for capturing the shadows in the folds of the petals. I love the rish deep red.

I'm wondering how many people are telling you this isn't duotone? Well I'm not going to. IMHO this is a very nice shot, well composed and perfect lighting make it a pleasure to view. Well done and good luck with this challenge!

There are a lot of roses in this challenge. This is one of the better ones I've seen so far. I really like the angle chosen here.
