 I filled a bowl full of milk and situated it on my kitchen table. I cut the stilk off the rose and put it in the milk. Situated my tripod above the rose and had the camera in macro mode. I positioned two table lamps, one on the left and another one on the right for lighting.

Ajusted colors, contrast and levels.

I can´t see the Negative Space in this one...

The shadows are a little distracting, and the rose petals appear a little soft. There is also some noise in the red, which seems to suggest that you may have used low lighting. I think more lighting, possibly from the side, would have highlighted a few of the petals in a much more dramatic way, contrasting the red petals and shadows nicely with the creamy milk.

Too centered for this challenge. I don't think negative space was used correctly here IMO. There isn't much of it and what there is isn't effective.

Great detail of the rose. Using milk is an interesting idea. I'll have to remember that for future reference. :)

The rose completely dominates this shot. The background comes off as secondary.

the surrounding space of your subject does not create the wow of the photograph.
