Beautiful detail and color. The water drops look suspended in air. Great clarity. 8

Really nice photograph. There's a number of "red roses" in the challenge - but your red is as deep as the petals are sharp! And I love the water drops and overall composition! 10

the highlights in the droplets are way too blown somehow :( Also they dont look as if they are on the flower at all, considering there are some which intersect an edge, did you put a transparent plane above the rose or something?
 03/11/2007 11:31:01 PM
The drops are on something transparent above the rose? That doesn't really look right...
 03/11/2007 08:23:29 PM
I liked this one, it wasn't like all the other roses.

This is nice and crisp. Certainly 'Red'. :D Something about the water droplets is throwing me off on this. Maybe it's the pure white lighting? Makes it look a little unnatural and studio(ish), rather than warm lighting you'd get from natural sunlight. All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Very beautiful. Are the drops on a plastic sheeting above the rose? Whatever it is - it looks good.

nice picture - well centered and i like how it fills the entire photo. the dew drops are a nice touch and add dazzle

8. Beautiful rose and unique from the other entries because the way the drops were applied.

Beatiful, but I don't care about the white border (not taking any points for that though)

not very original
 03/08/2007 01:45:18 PM
Lots of roses, but I think this one is the best. Great job.

this somehow looks fake - the droplets cannot possibly be on the roses petals. A bit too much of them, too.
 03/07/2007 07:49:08 PM
Odd
